Build Registry Path

Does anyone have an example how to build a regitry path. For example, assuming part or all of the following path does not exist, I would want a function that is smart enough to build the missing keys and create a new value and set the value data.
 
fnCreateRegPath "HKLM\SOFTWARE\NewKey\NewSubKey\NewSubKey\NewSubKey\NewSubKey" "New Value", "NewValueData" "NewValueDataType"
 
I'm also thinking it would delete the value and re-create the value each time (reason being: the value data type (string, DWORD, etc.) could be incorrect and recreating the value would resolve this)

That is good information ebgreen! Thank you. Here is the link for others: http://www.visualbasicscript.com/tm.aspx?m=61419
 
I'm curious though. This function only writes STRING values to the registry. How difficult would it be to expand this to optionally write DWORD and BINARY values? I like to think I'm pretty good at vbscript, but I suppose I'm not following this particular function well enough to feel comfortable updating it.

I don't imagine it would be particularly difficult. Just pass in another parameter that would control the type.
