Creating Startup items in Visual Basic 6

[metroidfox]

Does anyone know how to do this?

What do you mean startup items? (If you mean it starts when people log in, it's a matter of where your installer puts a shortcut ;D)

 

[metroidfox]

Where is the shortcut supposed to go?

 

[benjy355]

The startup menu :|

Oh bloody hell, I cannot think! Where is that?

 

[benjy355]

C:\Documents and Settings\<Username>\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
No doubt there's a way to get the user's name from Visual Basic.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce
