Thanks to all that replied.
This worked well.
I didn't try the Expandable String value.
The %%username%% did not work.

Hi all, is there a way to use the %username% variable in reg files? Something like:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Telelogic]
"DICTIONARY"="C:\Documents and Settings\\%username%\dictionary"After running it, the "%username%" is entered in their registry. What's the correct syntax?
Thanks,
