The _winreg module is part of the standard library and provides functions for accessing the Windows registry. But you need to learn enough about Python to be able to use modules and functions. You will also need to know enough about Windows internals to manage the keyboard. I suggest you start with a beginners python tutorial. If you have never programmed before then look at the non programmers list (or just try mine), if you have programmed in another language try the official tutorial http://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/NonProgrammers http://docs.python.org/tutorial/ Alan Gauld Author of the Learn To Program website http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ ----- Original Message ---- > From: Christopher Barkley <expression1...@comcast.net> > To: Alan Gauld <alan.ga...@btinternet.com> > Sent: Friday, 8 May, 2009 5:09:25 AM > Subject: Re: [Tutor] Need help with registry access > > no idea what any of that means.
