Editing PATH
By: rekha singh | 11 Jun 2010 6:33 pm
I have been asked to find a way to script the editing of the PATH variable on XP and 2003 to help clean up from previous installation (or uninstallations) that have not removed themselves from the path.
I found articles on how to read and write to the registry for the PATH variable, but nothing on how to weed out a string from the path. For example:
path=c:\oracle;c:\oracle\product;c:\oracle\product\home_1;c:\windows;c:\windows\system32
If I wanted to delete all the c:\oracle stuff from above, is this possible with variable-length PATH entries?
Pointers welcome (need to learn more about VBScript anyway hehe) and direct help would be appreciated (again to learn more)
Thanks!
