In the button's OnClick event, and don't forget 'Registry' in your
"uses" clause;
VAR
Reg : TRegistry
KeyName : string;
Background : string;
Begin
KeyName := '\Control Panel\Desktop'
Reg := TRegistry.Create;
Reg.RootKey := HKEY_CURRENT_USER;
Reg.OpenKey(KeyName,false);
{this finds the current name}
Background := Reg.ReadString('Wallpaper');
{this writes a new one}
Reg.WriteString('Wallpaper',Background);
Reg.CloseKey;
Reg.Free;
End;
