How to dynamically create exclude/include list on Windows client

Hello,
 
I'm trying to figure out how to dynamically create include and exclude lists on Windows 2003 client. As far as I know exclude and include lists are stored in Windows client's registry. So I presume I will have to use bpstart_notify.bat script as a framework and something like VBScript, Perl etc to do the actual job i.e. change Windows Registry contents. I wonder if anybody of you out there tried to do similar things woth WSH.

you only need to modify the following key any time you need it with a simple script and you will be fine.
 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VERITAS\NetBackup\CurrentVersion\Config\Exclude
 
 
hope this helps.

I know that, my dear fellow.
I need the exact method of modifying this registry value.
For instance I 've discovered that Exclude  registry key is of REG_MULTI_SZ type and WSH function RegRead can't accept REG_MULTI_SZ values.
