Writing to Registry

[Samantha]

I am working with this recipes:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/66011

The problem I am having is setting a hex value.
This line --- SetValueEx(aKey,"MyNewKey",0, REG_SZ,
r"c:\winnt\explorer.exe")
I want something Like -- SetValueEx(aKey,"MyNewSize",0, REG_SZ, 120 or
some value)
Help would be appreciated.

Usually when you don't know how to use a certain function, you begin
by reading the documentation for it:
http://docs.python.org/lib/module--winreg.html#l2h-5827

Note: this is untested (since I don't like screwing around
in the registry...)

Have you tried using REG_DWORD?

Thanks for the link.

Notice that surely you already have the full Python documentation, it
comes with the standard distribution.
