Registry - Find\Replace

[stev379]

I searched and found some tools on the Internet, but would prefer to know what's happening.

I'm sure I can put this together later today, but in the interest of saving time, I'm checking if anyone has something already created.

I need to find and replace the data in multiple value strings.

Does anyone have anything already created to run a find and replace on a value string, or anything in the registry? I can edit to change the string instead of course.

I know I can run "RegRead", but I'm not clear on what to put in the valuename parameter as a wildcard. Nor am I clear on how to search the entire registry from top to bottom.

Thanks for any help or suggestions!

There was _RegSearch(), posted a while back by a certain rakishly good-looking bird.

Doesn't do the replace part, but would be easy to modify for that or use in your own UDF.
