How to cast number: 3874355765 ?
Is it possible to store that as a number (DWORD) in registry
or the only way is to use a string variable?

Of course you can. You just can't express it as 3874355765 in VB.

You cloud store it as a string and do calculations on it by casting
selected parts of it.
See Karen's PowerTools, where she made a small calculator in VB (with
source code) that does not overflow.
