    DevX.com has an example of how to read the registry using VB6.

    You’ll have to add this constant: Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002…it’s missing from the sample.

    You’ll want to read the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System key’s EnableLUA value. 1 == enabled.

    There’s also a decent example at freevbcode.com.
