Hmmm, have you tried accessing a simpler key to make sure Win32::TieRegistry is working?

If not, then the delimiter is the least of your worries :)

But in any case, you're likely to be safer using '\' (or "\\") as your delim, since that's what windows uses, and I'm pretty sure it's not allowed in the key names. Anything else might show up in the keys, as you've already discovered, and foul you up.

Since you've already tried "\\", I'd think that "W32::TR just not working" is the likeliest case, though.

Run the simple test and let us know...
