$path = ReadValue("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment","Path")

After installation completes I use this statement to restore the path.

WriteValue ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Environment","Path","c:\program files\sbaremotesystem\bin;$path","REG_SZ")

This is working spuratically on test machines. On some I am getting the stored path plus the additional statement but on others I am getting a path statement that reads:

c:\program files\sbaremotesystem\bin;$path

Is there something I am missing in the syntax?

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment

for the users that are getting "$path" in their path statement, chances are they do not have a HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\... reg key.
