Change Registry DWORD Setting through VBA

[CarolineJ]

I need to change a registry setting. Have tried using PrivateProfileString
but this just seems to add a String Value but I need to change the DWORD
value. Is there a way to do this through VBA in Word (or through vbscript on
an HTM page - I seem to be able to do even less here)?

Many thanks

Caroline

Karl Peterson has a registry class that you can use to make changes to any
kind of key or value in the registry

Take a look here

The class is written in VB6, but should work perfectly happily when imported
into a VBA project
