error 4450 when doing a LOAD and not having admin rights
INTRODUCTION: when running a simple program doing a LOAD of the
registry, the this works, however if the user running this does NOT
have admin rights then customer gets this error:
The LOAD of <key-value file> failed. (4450)
WHY YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS: You have hit a bug, with a possible
workaround. This an issue both with V8 & 9.
PROCEDURAL APPROACH: The abowe mentioned happens when running a code
like this:
DEFINE VARIABLE c$client-os AS CHARACTER NO-UNDO.
LOAD "software\microsoft\windows nt" BASE-KEY "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE"
NO-ERROR.
USE "software\microsoft\windows nt" NO-ERROR.
GET-KEY-VALUE SECTION "currentversion" KEY "currentversion" VALUE c$cl
ient-os.
UNLOAD "software\microsoft\windows nt" NO-ERROR.
message c$client-os title "WIN NT Version" view-as alert-box
WORKAROUND: Is to remove the BASE-KEY.
P.S: On win 95 this will return a "?".
