Wscript. Shell object details !! (6)

Syntax
Wshshell. regwrite strname, anyvalue, [strtype]

Anyvalue
When the strtype is REG_SZ or reg_expand_sz, The regwrite method automatically converts anyvalue to a string. If strtype is REG_DWORD, anyvalue is converted to an integer. If strtype is REG_BINARY, anyvalue must be an integer.

Strtype
The regwrite method supports the following strtypes: REG_SZ, reg_expand_sz, REG_DWORD, and REG_BINARY. If other data types are passed as strtype, regwrite returns e_invalidarg.
Example
Set wshshell = wscript. Createobject ("wscript. Shell ")

Wshshell. regwrite "hkcu \ scriptengine \ value", "some string value"
Wshshell. regwrite "hkcu \ scriptengine \ key \", 1 "REG_DWORD"

Set wshshell = wscript. Createobject ("wscript. Shell ")
Wshshell. Run ("Notepad" & wscript. scriptfullname)
