in reply to Keys are not adding to registry

Works for me, I see the key/value as specified in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\dkanagar . Perhaps you're looking in the wrong place.

      Yes, I can see it in regedit.exe, I also see it via the command line: 

      D:\>perl tie.pl

D:\>reg query HKLM\SOFTWARE\dkanagar /s

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\dkanagar
    Version    REG_SZ    1.00

      If you have regedit open before you run the script it won't dynamically update when changes are made. 'View'->'Refresh' or the F5 key will refresh it for you.
