#182352 - 2007-11-08 02:29 PM WriteValue truncates REG_DWORD
barrycaruth barrycaruth Fresh Scripter Registered: 2005-05-04 Posts: 7	The code: Code: $result = WriteValue ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blah","TestValue","4294967295","REG_DWORD") creates a registry value of 0x7fffffff rather than 0xffffffff as expected. It looks like writevalue doesn't support double integers. Is that correct?

Glenn Barnas Glenn Barnas KiX Supporter Registered: 2003-01-28 Posts: 4401 Loc: New Jersey	OK - try CDbl(value) or adding a ".0" to the end, which Kix will recognize as a double value. (ie: 13238490284.0, not 13238490284) G- _________________________ Actually I am a Rocket Scientist! $\:D$
