Description

Opens a specified key in a read-only manner.

Call OpenKeyReadOnly to make a specified key the current key. Key is the name of the key to open. If Key is an empty string (Delphi) or NULL (C++), the CurrentKey property is set to the key specified by the RootKey property.

Key is opened with the security access value KEY_READ.

OpenKeyReadOnly returns True if the key is successfully opened and CurrentKey is set to the key.

Note: After a successful call to OpenKeyReadOnly, the Access property of the registry component is automatically changed to KEY_READ, regardless of what that property was set to prior to the method call.
