i created a nice little vista phone dialer skin that works perfectly in portrait view, and landscape. I created a cab file to write the images for the buttons and background to a directory named "PhoneSkin" but obviously i need to write something to the registry telling it to look there for the buttons. also, i dont want to replace the original "indial...." images. i would rather have them go to the "PhoneSkin" directory too, that way, when you uninstall the cab, you can have it revert back to the original dialer.

First question, is it possible to have it automatically rewrite the registry to use the original files if you uninstall the cab, and if so, how can i write that to the cab file?

I am creating a *.inf file, and using a cab creating program to make the actual cab file, and it writes a setup.xml file, so, that is how it installs.

I need the code to put in the .inf file to write the registry to tell it to use the images in the phoneskin dir. how can i do that?

lest thing. when you start dialing a number, you get that little popup list of names you can scroll through, and when i tried installing the cab, it kept the highlighted name with grey on white text. i would like to make it be a blue color so match the rest of the skin colors. how can i write that to the registrey, and i would obviously like to have it make it the original colors if uninstalled.

can someone please help me. it will be greatly appreciated. if i can get help to learn how to do this stuff, you will be seeing a lot of new skins coming from me. thanks in advance for the help, and all skins i make i will post here for free.

so, no one able to figure it out either? i know there are ways to do what i am asking, but just dont know how myself. please let me know if any one knows. thanks again.
