action parameter query “MessageBody” with description “Please enter the Message to display:” and with default value “”

regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\Settings\Client\File_Search

" “FileName”="{parameter “MessageBody” of action}"

Can you please tell me why this does not work? It creates the the key but not the

string value.

Are there back slashes in the “MessageBody” parameter? If so, they need to be escaped:

regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\BigFix\EnterpriseClient\Settings\Client\File_Search

" “FileName”="{escape of parameter “MessageBody” of action}"
