REGEDIT to locate a key that is burried many folders (like 7) deep. For
those not familiar with it, REGEDIT is set up in a tree structure, with
little +s and -s next to folders. You click on the + to open the folder.>>

You could certainly use the old DOS "path\path\path\...\DBSetup folder"
approach, but this seems to me to be the perfect opportunity for a
screenshot that shows the expanded folder hierarchy. Of course, no sooner is
the manual printed than the programmers will change the registry location,
but hey, them's the breaks. <g>
