Actually, that's a very good idea (I hadn't thought of that). I'll give that a try!

Thanks again...

Okay, I used Messagebox() to verify that my registry data is being saved and loaded successfully. That being the case, the only other possibility (that I can think of) is that my datatypes, etc. are not correct/compatible for the structure that I am using to save my persistent data.

I am saving all persistent data as one large structure and as value type 'REG_BINARY'.

Once again, this code works perfectly on 2002/2003 devices, but not on WM2005.

Any thoughts?

Well, I finally found the problem. I don't really understand the solution, but it works.

I have some TCHAR arrays set up in my persistent structure (high score names) that gets saved to the registry. Before loading values into this array from the registry, I would zero them out by using a for-loop to assign 'NULL' to each element in the arrays.

For some reason, doing this caused all my registry data to load corrupted. I removed the NULL assignments and it's working now. Very strange.
