Write Registry string converted to dword

Postby jtjohnson » Tue Sep 12, 2006 12:39 pm

Hi,

I need to write out some registry values and one of them is the string "#108". When I do this the value with the Write Registry command the value is written, but it is converted to a dword with the value 108.

I've checked that the Write Registry command is told to write a string but it still comes out as a dword. Any ideas on what I can do to force this to come out as a string?

If it makes a difference I'm writing to the default value of the key.

Thanks,

James Johnson
