    <p>I would like to get the count of PendingFileRenameOperations, I have the following code below, but I keep getting a count higher then the actual number set in the registry.</p> <p>For example, with the function below I get a count of (5) but there is only (2) pending or I get a count of (11) but there is only (5) pending.</p> <p>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p> <pre><code>function GetPendingFileRenameCount(): Integer; const PendingFileRenameOperationsKey = 'SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager'; PendingFileRenameOperationsName = 'PendingFileRenameOperations'; var Reg: TRegistry; DataSize: Integer; Buffer: string; begin Reg := TRegistry.Create; try Reg.RootKey := HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE; Result := 0; if Reg.OpenKeyReadOnly(PendingFileRenameOperationsKey) then begin DataSize := Reg.GetDataSize(PendingFileRenameOperationsName); SetLength(Buffer, DataSize); Reg.ReadBinaryData(PendingFileRenameOperationsName, Buffer[1], DataSize); while (Pos(#0, Buffer) &gt; 0) do begin Result := Result + 1; Buffer := Copy(Buffer, Pos(#0, Buffer) + 1, Length(Buffer)); end; end; finally Reg.Free(); end; end; </code></pre> <h3>UPDATE</h3> <p>I should have mentioned I'm trying to get the count of the pending files to be deleted.</p> <h3>UPDATE TWO</h3> <p>Here's what I have in my registry:</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Temp\etilqs_vTXZjJASQeyi046Mjjig#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Temp\etilqs_av9VVc5fw7Za76J12NTc#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat#0 !\??\z:\test.fil#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat#0 !\??\X:\test.fil#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5#0#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat#0 !\??\X:\test.fil#0</p> <p>\??\Z:\Local Settings\Internet Files\Content.IE5#0 !\??\X:\test.fil#0#0</p> <p>The lines with the double null at the end are the files that will be deleted on the next reboot, Those are the ones I would like to get the count of (except the very last double null). I'm really not sure how to parse this to get what I'm looking for.</p> <p>Would it be as simple as just adding another #0 to the Pos function?</p> <pre><code>while (Pos(#0#0, Buffer) &gt; 0) do begin Result := Result + 1; Buffer := Copy(Buffer, Pos(#0#0, Buffer) + 1, Length(Buffer)); end; </code></pre>

    1. CODo you mean to say that you want *only* the number of pending deletions? So, if there are renames and deletions pending, you only want to count the deletions?

    3. COFrom everything I've read, those 12 lines of text are *not* in the correct format for the PendingFileRenameOperations value. They're not a proper MULTI_SZ. But aside from that, I don't like that you completely changed the question after you already had an answer. It's not that you weren't sure what you were really looking for, and after finding the right vocabulary, you clarified your question. Rather, you've now asked how to do something that your original code wasn't even *attempting* to do. I think you should ask a new question about deletions.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
