   Dim i, ret, NameSize As Integer
   Dim sc As New StringCollection
   Dim sb As New StringBuilder(MAX_REG_KEYNAME_SIZE + 1)
   Dim ans(-1) As String

   ' quick sanity check
   If hKey.Equals(IntPtr.Zero) Then
     Throw New ApplicationException("Cannot access a closed registry key")
   End If

   Do
     NameSize = MAX_REG_KEYNAME_SIZE + 1
     ret = RegEnumKeyEx(hKey, i, sb, NameSize, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero)
     If ret <> 0 Then
       Exit Do
     End If
     sc.Add(sb.ToString)
