Hello there., below are few registry queries which i hope will be answered. I have the below reg file created which has the odbc info related to my application. This odbc info is required for my reports to run. I have to manually execute this reg file so that info is added to the registry. I tried executing by using shellexecute from vb to write this info, but each time i execute this it prompts me asking "do you want to add this info to registry". I dont want this to happen.
So my 1st question related to this is how do i write the below piece of info to the registry from VB.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\aicis reports]
"Driver"="C:\\WINNT\\System32\\sqlsrv32.dll"
"Server"="BOMBDC06"
"Database"="HYD"
"Language"="us_english"
"LastUser"="sa"
** Secondly i would be accessing different servers and db's located on them. So instead of writing the whole info into the registry can i write only the server and database info. The info should appropriately be written based upon the user selection of the server and database. I have two textboxes which will allow the
user to enter the servername and db name. Can you guys pl give me some code for both the queries please.

You don't need to use .reg files to insert into the registry. A VB app could do it for you without the "Are you sure" prompts. Check out this thread.
