Windows Registry/Expire date

List members,

I need some help on trying to acomplish a task under VB.
My goal is to prevent a user from accessing features of my program after a
certain amount of days (like an expire date/shareware program). I've read
Microsoft's documentation on it, and I've been looking over VB (.NET, 2003)
documentation to see how I can do it.
The coding itself is simple, however I do not know how to access Windows
registry keys under VB .NET frame.

Has anybody tried to implement this feature, or at least have a insight on
how to help me?

Thx in advance,
Leo
