Guys I have a registry file that I want to run as part of a setup (INNO) so that the contents are placed in the registry :-)
Basically, if you manually double click the file.reg from explorer, windows asks if you want to update the registry and then prompts you again after it's done. I want to write a small vb exe that does this automatically so that the questions are not asked. I am ok writing code to fire off external apps etc, its the "silent" thing I am not sure about. I.E forcing it to run and not ask the questions.... Any ideas??? BUT I guess I could write the stuff directly to the registry using VB but I haven't done this before and it seems like the 'double click' route would be the quickest way for me to get it up and running. Also I don't like messing with the registry - scary stuff :-) BTW I use INNO setup and it maybe that I can register the stuff directly as part of the setup (there is a registry section)- again, not sure how. I normally use the [Run] section to fire off a vb exe at the end of the setup. In its most crudest form I could fire off the .reg file and tell the user (via a text box) that they must press OK to fully register - crude and v-poor but would work Many thanks as always Julian [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
