I need to have a variable in the registry table put the hardcoded value in the registry of the client machine. For example, if I use %APPDATA%\Exceed in the Current User section of the registry, it puts that exact text in the registry. Most apps would read the variable correctly. Unfortunately the version of Exceed I have doesn't recognize %APPDATA%. If JoeBlow logs in, I need the key to read C:\Documents and Settings\JoeBlow\Application Data\Exceed. I still need to keep a variable in case a 2nd user logs in. Any help is much appreciated!!!
