***** VBS ****************

Dim WshShell ' General shell object

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

Const TIMEOUT = 3 ' Time out for popup windows while running logon script

wshShell.Popup "Hello " & UserName & ", your clock is being set...", TIMEOUT

Wshshell.run "1.reg",0, True

******** 1.Reg ***********

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Jerusalem Standard Time]

"Display"="(GMT+02:00) Jerusalem"

"Dlt"=""

"TZI"=hex:88,ff,ff,ff,00,00,00,00,c4,ff,ff,ff,00,00,01,00,00,00,02,00,01,00,00,\

00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,05,00,05,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00

Will this do

set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
oShell.run"regedit /s 1.reg"

Or if you want to have the VBS make the reg file then run it then delete the reg file

Dim Act, Fso, RegFile, Ts '''' Varibles For The Script
  '''' Object For The Script
  Set Act = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
  Set Fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
  RegFile = Act.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%SystemDrive%\Set_Time.Reg")
  Set Ts = Fso.CreateTextFile(RegFile)
  Ts.WriteLine "Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00" & vbCrLf 
  Ts.WriteLine "[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Jerusalem Standard Time]"
  Ts.WriteLine """Display""=""(GMT+02:00) Jerusalem""" 
  Ts.WriteLine """Dlt""="""""
  Ts.WriteLine """TZI""=hex:88,ff,ff,ff,00,00,00,00,c4,ff,ff,ff,00,00,01,00,00,00,02,00,01,00,00,\" 
  Ts.WriteLine "00,00,00,00,00,00,00,03,00,05,00,05,00,02,00,00,00,00,00,00,00"
  Act.Popup "Preparing To Change The Time", 3, "Time Change", 0 + 32
  Act.Run("regedit /s " & RegFile),0,True  
  If Fso.FileExists(RegFile) Then Fso.DeleteFile(RegFile) End If

Is it possible to add or modify a registry file via a vb script or batch file the would grab part of the the data using the %username% variable, I am using folder redirection in our domain, and I have a program that requires a file association of .egp , so when they click on Example.egp it will open \\SERVERNAME\Redirect\KIM HAWS\Easy Grade Pro\egp.exe, and the same for \SERVERNAME\Redirect\tim shay\Easy Grade Pro\egp.exe, ect.. in the registry under classes is the location of where i want to associate a program with the .egp file extension, but the location of the program to execute it changes with each logged in user.. The data path goes to their logged in username, so I can use the %username% variable somewhere, but the registry does not understand that.. Maybe some help on a batch file or .vbs that might grab the info from %username% and put it into the registry or just create a .reg key that I can add to the registry further down the login script after the new data has been created into the reg file.. Thanks for any help anyone can offer..

What about this 'batch file' example:

1: @ECHO OFF
2: REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.egp /VE /D "egpfile" /F >NUL
3: REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\egpfile /VE /D "Easy Grade Pro File" /F >NUL
4: REG ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\egpfile\shell\open\command /VE /T REG_EXPAND_SZ /D "\"\\SERVERNAME\Redirect\%%USERNAME%%\Easy Grade Pro\egp.exe\" %%1" /F >NUL

Please remove the line numbers, they are only added to identify wrapped lines.
