Status: offline 		Is it possible to change the values in the Registry through script? If so, can you point me in the proper direction?
Thanks

Status: offline 		Hi there Iceman,

It sure is possible. Basically under the WSH your three main commands are RegRead, RegWrite and RegDelete.

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Ver = WshShell.RegRead ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Whatever\)
WshShell.RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Whatever","VERSION","REG_SZ")

and so on...

A key name is specified by a final backslash, a value name has no final backslash.

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Ver = WshShell.RegRead "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Whatever\
WshShell.RegWrite "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Whatever","VERSION","REG_SZ"
