Add a key to the folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Win...





in the registry. Use any name and let the value be the full path of the exe file of your VB application
Reply:You can create an entry in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\


Windows\CurrentVersion\Run





There you create a new string value identifying your program and where it's located.
Reply:i know about vb and have used this option. on the start menu%26lt;programs you find a folder named startup . just add ashortcut to the vb application file and your problem is solved. (note: in the startup folder there might be some other shortcuts to other startup items like anitvirus etc don't change the positons of those file . it may cause bigger problems
