You have to initialize the string variable to a set of spaces or NULL
characters, and specify the length of the string in the "s" variable. Add
these two lines of code right before the function call:
pasd = Space$(1024)
s = 1024
Also, when you call the function as a sub, without capturing the return value,
do not use parentheses around the argument list:
regqueryvalue arr, "get", pasd, s
