Hi,

I'm developing small appliation in C++ which needs some registry values
of Outlook . I googled and and found the outlook registry value will be
under 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER'. Meanwhile I found the registry values will
be stored in different names based on the outlook version. For example,
the value store in registry '001e3d09' in Outlook 2000 will be stored
in '001f3d09' in outlook 2003.

Is there any simple way such that I can determine which registry value
(001e3d09 or 001f3d09 in above case ) I should read. Should I look for
the '001e3d09' first and if not present should I go with '001f3d09'.
I'm not sure above workaround is correct.

Any helps on this will be greately appreciated,

Regards,
Sridhar,
