Hi

Can some-one help me please, I just want to run a vb script when the user log in to change the IE favorites location in the registry using VB script.

Thanks

Ken

You need to use the Windows API in order to do that in VB.

The Win32 API functions you will need are as follows:

RegCreateKeyEx
RegCloseKey


Hope this helps,

Hi

I think i have a vb script to do what I wanted, I have tested it and it seems to work ok when I double click on it. Just need to try it at login.
