Hello. I am currently trying to create a VBScript that used the regobj.dll
to create a reg_Binary value. I know how to use the regtype constant, but
doing so always ends up with a zero length vlaue with a Reg_None type. What
am I missing? Is there a way to force a varient to be binary? Thanks!

Code example below:

strRegKey = "\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Outlook\Custom
Forms\Read\"
Set objReg = CreateObject("RegObj.Registry")
Set objRegKey = objReg.RegKeyFromString(strRegKey)
objRegKey.Values.Add "Testing","1101a1",rvBinary

Do you use custom business object to write registry? As far as I know we
usually use RegWrite with WSH object to write registry.   I don't think we
can form a variant to be Binary value with that although we can specify
value type while write registry. You may need to confirm with the vendor of
your business object whether or not it can perform the conversion you want.

Hope it helps.

You might want to consider switching to using WMI's StdRegProv (Standard Registry Provider).

with all of the words: stdregprov

newsgroup: microsoft.public.scripting.*

for examples and links to the documentation...

For Win9x and NT4, you'll need to install the WMI core (comes standard with WinME/2000/XP).

Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) CORE 1.5

For WMI access to remote machines (including the registry), you need WMI on both the local and remote machines.
