Help creating a reg file using appendfile

(imported topic written by IvyC)

I am trying to create a reg file using appendfile and this is what I have so far:

delete __appendfile

delete wizardedit.reg

appendfile Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

appendfile

appendfile

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSFTPSVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots

appendfile {“ddas$lcrem_sort_reports=\” & first 8 of computer name & “C\eor_data\lcrem”}

move __appendfile wizardedit.reg

this creates a file that looks like this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSFTPSVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots

ddas$lcrem_sort_reports=\ids99991C\eor_data\lcrem

I need it to look like this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSFTPSVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots

“/ddas$lcrem_sort_reports”=”\\ids99991C\eor_data\lcrem,3”

So I tried this:

delete __appendfile

delete wizardedit.reg

appendfile Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

appendfile

appendfile

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSFTPSVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots

appendfile {""/DDAS$LCREM_SORT_REPORTS"="\\" & first 8 of computer name & “C\EOR_DATA\LCREM,3"”}

move __appendfile wizardedit.reg

This failed…. So I tried this:

delete __appendfile

delete wizardedit.reg

appendfile Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

appendfile

appendfile

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSFTPSVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots

appendfile {""/DDAS$LCREM_SORT_REPORTS"="\\"" & first 8 of computer name & "“C\DATA\EOR_DATA\LCREM,3"”}

move __appendfile wizardedit.reg

And it failed too L.

What is wrong?

I figured it out… This is what worked :)…

createfile until __EOF

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSFTPSVC\Parameters\Virtual Roots

“/DDAS$LCREM_SORT_REPORTS”="\{first 8 of computer name}C\DATA\EOR_DATA\LCREM,3"

__EOF

move __createfile wizardedit.reg
