Creating a RegHack to change something in the System Registry

Hey fellas,

I'm not quite sure, but can you tell me how to create a reg hack? We have databases that require an Oracle ODBC driver and the driver is located in WINNT\System32, however, even after we physically move the driver to the C:\Oracle directory (where is the only place the DSN will find it), we have to go into the Registery and change the path. Is there anyway we can put the reghack on a floppy (or a shared resource) that will change the path to what we want?

Let me know what you think, and if you need info, please let me know.

Again, thanks a lot.

You can run regedit.exe and export the key/s with the correct path.
This creates a .reg file which you can put on a floppy. Double clicking on it will import the key into the current pc's registry.
 
Hi RayH,

That worked, thanks a lot for your help. I didn't even bother to look around, I'm sure if I would have looked up there and decided to actually try a few things, I might have figured it out. 😉

Thanks a lot.
