Can't get reg data

My OS is Windows 7 x64 Enterprise.
I am using the stand alone Wise 9.02 Installation System tool.
Within this tool I wrote a 2 line program.

Get Registry Key SOFTWARE\CompanyData\Build place in Variable GETMYKEY
Display Message "My Value".
#this also displays the variable %GETMYKEY%

The Display line of code returns nothing. There is no data at all in my %GETMYKEY% VAR. This key does exist and it does contain data and I even exported this key to a file and then did a copy/paste to make sure I was spelling everything right.

My guess is Wise Installation System 9.02 does not play nice with Windows 7 x64 but I wanted to see what this forum had to same on this matter.

verify that the location of the reg key is not in the 64bits redirected 32 bit registry location...HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\

Bingo!! my data is in the HKLM\Software\Wow6432Node. Why does it default there and how can I trick Wise Script Editor to write to the true HKML\Software\CompanyData\Build location?

Thanks.

The Wise Script will produce a 32-bit executable unable to read the 64-bit registry portion
