Sorry... you're gonna have to use the Win32 DLL versions or the WMI Registry provider.<br />
<br />
Here is a quote from the .Net documentation:<br />
<br />
There is no way to control whether the information being passed is stored as an sz, or an expanded_sz string, and therefore, all string values are interpreted as standard sz values.<br />
<br />
Let us know if you need examples....<br />

Set REG_EXPAND_SZ&quot; value in the registry

Visual Basic .NET (VB.NET) is an object-oriented programming language implemented on the .NET framework, but also supported on other platforms such as Mono and Silverlight. Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
