cfregistry action = "set"

Adds a registry key, adds a value, or updates a value.

<cfregistry 
   action = "set"
   branch = "branch"
   entry = "key or value"
   type = "value type"
   value = "data">

Attribute	Req/Opt	Description
action	Required	set
branch	Required	Name of a registry branch.
entry	Required	Key or value to set.
type	Optional	string: set a string value (default). dWord: set a DWord value. key: create a key.
value	Optional	Value data to set. If you omit this attribute, `cfregistry` creates default value, as follows: string: creates an empty string: `""` dWord: creates a value of `0` (zero)

If it does not exist, cfregistry creates the key or value.

<!--- This example uses cfregistry Set Action to modify registry value data --->
<!--- Normally you pass in a file name instead of setting one here. --->
<cfset FileName = "dummy.cfm">
<cfregistry action = "set"
 branch = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\cflangref"
 entry = "LastCFM01" type = "String" value = "#FileName#">
<h1>cfregistry action = "set"</h1>

This code does not seem to work. It executes without throwing any exception, however, when I peek at the registry, the value can't be found!
