Hey Kevin,

Very tricky… On one of my computers, your query returns:

q:values of key “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run” of registry as string

A:

A: C:\Program Files\Intel\Wireless\Bin\ifrmewrk.exe /tf Intel PROSet/Wireless

A: C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel\atiptaxx.exe

A: “C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Distillr\Acrotray.exe”

A: “C:\Program Files\Google\Google Desktop Search\GoogleDesktop.exe” /startup

Using some string manipulations and tricks, I can get it to this:

q: (if (it starts with “%22”) then (following text of first “%22” of it) else it) of (preceding text of last “.exe” of it & “.exe”) of (it as lowercase) whose (it contains “.exe”) of (values of key “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run” of registry as string)

A: c:\program files\intel\wireless\bin\ifrmewrk.exe

A: c:\program files\ati technologies\ati control panel\atiptaxx.exe

A: c:\program files\adobe\acrobat 7.0\distillr\acrotray.exe

A: c:\program files\google\google desktop search\googledesktop.exe

Hopefully that works in all situations for you…
