Retrieving the Telephony CountryList from the RegistryI was wondering if there was an API call in Windows that would allow us to
fetch the Telephony CountryList from the registry without using the registry commands in .NET? Basically we are wanting to retrieve the list of international telephone prefixes for each country. To give you some advice, I would not retrieve telephone prefixes from the
registry. Instead either download a list from the internet or even manually inputting them in a database would be better. If a database is not an option than even putting them in an XML file or other file format would still be better than retrieving them from the registry. I understand that you don't want direct registry calls, nevertheless these Win32 native calls would still access the registry. Any reason why you want to retrieve these from the system?

table in the database. Show quote "Gabriel Lozano-Morán" wrote: > Under the motto "give a man a fish and you will feed him for a day.
