registry access and exe detect in vb.net

Hello everyone!
I'm trying to develop a tool for pocket pc (windows mobile 2003) that
detects if a specific exe is running and based on that makes changes to the
registry.
What would be the best way to do this with visual basic .net?
I've been looking around with google and on msdn and all the code that I
found for visual basic .net didnt seem to work in the smart device settings.

Can someone please point me in the right directions?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Greetings,
John

John,

When code from the complete version does not work in the compact framework
(as is written for the registry class) than is in my opinion this the best
place to ask this.

microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework

I hope this helps something?
