gcue Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) i am looking at a remote pc registry entry $reg = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\Office12-HP4350DTN\PrinterDriverData", "Forms?") it returns a value of "2173314341" when i write that value RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\Office14-HP4350DTN\PrinterDriverData", "Forms?", "REG_DWORD", $reg) the value changes to "2147483648" any ideas?

LarryDalooza Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Is it a DWORD? Because the max value of a DWORD is 2147483647. Check the value again... is it a DWORD? Lar. AutoIt has helped make me wealthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcue Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 it is a DWORD.. so if that's the max value for a dword, how would i be able to write values that exceed that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryDalooza Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 I am sorry... I am incorrect. ... just use Number($reg) RegWrite("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers\Office14-HP4350DTN\PrinterDriverData", "Forms?", "REG_DWORD", Number($reg)) Lar.

PsaltyDS Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 (edited) It's an unsigned 32-bit value, so the max value is 2^32 - 1 = 4294967295 (4Gig) = 0xFFFFFFFF: $reg = 4294967295 RegWrite("HKCU\SOFTWARE\AutoIt v3", "TestData", "REG_DWORD", $reg) Edit: Larry already saved it!

gcue Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 actually that didnt work. number($reg) shows the right value but when i regwrite that.. it doesnt work... did it work for you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcue Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 i am able to get the HEX value doing this: Hex(int($reg)) but when i try to regwrite that as a value, it writes it as a string so its still wrong =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcue Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 ok this worked: RegWrite value "0x" & Hex(int($reg)) thanks again for your help fellas =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
