Hi!

I am using Windows XP Pro and I found a bug in "RegEdit". It is not possible
to import (earlier exportet) .reg files with registykeys wich contains
linebrakes...

Is there any way to solve this problem?

Thanks!

You don't say the previously exported REG file format. "REGEDIT4" or
"Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00"

The simplest solution is to remove the linebreaks in the file (keeping
all data on a single line) before import. Or ensure that the
continuation charcter "\" is present in the reg file where needed.

Posting ome example text may help.
