Question 1 concerning the RegQueryValueEx API
REG_BINARY

When it says binary data in any form, what does that
specifically entail.
(as opposed to REG_SZ used for strings)

It means any sequence of bytes.

Question 2
How can I automate this to check for multiple characters in
a string. I tried a
inc esi statement.

lea esi, szBigBuffer[0] ;look at 1st character in buffer
for a match
lodsb

.if EAX==31h ; the '1' character

I can't tell what you're asking here. If you're trying to do the
equivalent of a C switch statement, then what you have it pretty much
right.

.if EAX == '1'
...
.elseif EAX == '2'
