Jerry,
Use the @ symbol. Best way is to create the necessary key/value in the
registry, and then export that key to a REG file.

Hi
I probably should'nt ask this question in this forum, but I could not
find the proper forum/discussion to ask this and I really need to
figure this out very urgent.
I want to use a .reg file to make changes in the registry. I am trying
to change the (Default) string value that can be found at the top of
every key. I am not able to do this . I use the following code in my
..reg file to achieve this.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Lotus
Notes\Shell\Open\Command]
"(Default)"="C:\\Program Files\\Lotus\\notes\\notes.exe
=i:\\Notes\\notes.ini"
But instead of changing the (Default) string value it adds a double
string value called (Default). How can I change the (Default) string
value using the .reg file??
Thank in advance
