Hi all,

I've been trying to script a registry update procedure,
but have come up against a brick wall. How do I insert
entries such as the following:

REG UPDATE HKLM\SOFTWARE\TEST\TEST="ME=MYPATH"

where the value 'TEST' is a REG_MULTI_SZ value? When I try
to insert the value with an '=', I am told "The system was
unable to find the specified registry key."

How can I do this? Is there an escape character?
