Process Purpose

 

The Write Registry process is used to write an entry in the device registry file.

 

 

When you add a process, you are required to define its settings. This occurs in the process's properties window which is displayed automatically after having added the Write Registry process.

If any subsequent edition is required, double-click the process to open its properties window and enter the necessary modifications.

 

 

Proceed as follows:

 

Key Name

Define the key name to write in the registry file or click and select a variable with that value. See Variable Definition.

Key Names and Values to Write

Value Name

Define the value name to write in the registry or click and select a variable with that value.

New Value

Define the new value to write in the registry or click and select a variable with that value.

New Value Type

Define the new value type to write or click and select a variable with that value.

If Error Go to

Select a target location from the drop-down or list, in case an error occurs in the execution of the operation. See Detail of a window below.

 

Use the editing icons to the right of the table to move the rows up and down and to delete or add more rows.

Ex: If you right-click the "Variable" input box (included in a "Conversion's" properties window), you are provided with the "Search..."and "Variable Select" options.
