Discussion

The REGISTRY.SYS_CREATE() method writes a zero terminated string value (type REG_SZ) into the Registry. This method can be used to create a registry in any location. Compare with REGISTRY.SAVE_SETTINGS() which can only be used to create registry settings in the Alpha Anywhere registry. The power of this function makes it dangerous to use. Back up your Registry before making any changes.
