Webservice can't call Registry GetValue function?
I use a webservice in order to get and return Registry value.
For explicit more, example follow:
RegistryKey regKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey("Software\\Yahoo\\Pager");
string sUserName = regKey.GetValue("Yahoo! User ID").ToString();
regKey.Close();
I built it by Visual Studio 2005. Debugging-(F5), I can get 'sUserName' variable easily, but I can't get it on a webservice, it throws exception: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
Experts can help me in this regard?
Thanks so much in advance!

What account is the web service running under?
Is that account the same CurrentUser account that you expect?

It's not a good idea to write web services which do this - there are all sorts of pitfalls (web service hosting application login user, permissions).
Instead if you want to pass configuration to a webservice I'd recommend adding them to the web.config file.

In this demo, I want to get my current yahoo nick by 'sUserName ' variable. 'str' variable is used for getting IIS account type. I tried many different types of Windows accounts to configure for IIS, but it's unsuccessful.
