Hi budyoulike

without any info on what it is yur actually doing [regarding Actions used], its difficult to tell yu where yur going wrong.
Have a look at using Registry.Create Key and see where you go with that /ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif
...or Registry.Set Value if it's Data yur trying to enter.

REGISTRY > CREATE KEY

and

REGISTRY > SET VALUE

are two very different actions, they aren't interchangable. Sounds like you're using create key when you mean to use set value. (Just a guess) Click the link below my name to visit Autoplay Media Studio help online for more details on these and all other actions...

Hi there thanks for the quick reply,
basicly im trying to do whatever this bit of code does;

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\whatever\whatever]
"Key"="123456789"

Thanks..

That would be a REGISTRY > SET VALUE action. Try it out, check out the help files on it too if you get a sec...
