perl : Importing registry keys
|

| Hi,
After many attempts I am landing here to request much needed help.
Using Win32::TieRegistry module I was successfully able to export a
registry key (to a file) without any problem, even though the file I
get ends up in binary format. I cannot seem to find a way to export
(not load) this file back to the registry. I even tried with
Win32::Registry module to do the same.
Even I applied the patch from Jenda Krynicky and making a call
(please see below), dies without any error message.
Win32::Registry::Import("Keys.reg") or die "Can't import: $^E\n";
Can someone help me please.

Quick peak at the documentation shows a LoadKey and SaveKey. No idea if
that solves your problem.

| Hi John,
I believe you meant RegLoadKey and RegSaveKey functions. In
fact, RegSaveKey works fine for exporting a file. Unfortunately
RegLoadKey doesn't help me in this case. I really want to import rather
than loading the .reg file.
