Hi i think the below code helps you both to start your application at windows logon.

First give refrence to Registry access function

 
Dim regKey As New Registry
Dim strKeyValueHere As String
Dim strMyExePathAndName As String
Const strKeyRootPath As String = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\"
Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE As Long = &H80000002
strKeyValueHere = "MyKey"
strMyExePathAndName = App.Path & "\MyExeName.Exe"
If Not regKey.GetKeyValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyRootPath, strKeyValueHere, strMyExePathAndName) Then
        regKey.UpdateKey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyRootPath, strKeyValueHere, strMyExePathAndName
End If
