[THIN] OT: How to VBScript to create reg_sz value that contains quotes?

Trying to set a reg_sz value value via vbscript.
Here's a dump of what I want to set:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\AcroExch.Document.7\protocol\StdFileEditing\server]
@="\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Adobe\\Acrobat 9.0\\Acrobat\\Acrobat.exe\""
But I can't get it to take the leading and trailing " marks - the string
value itself actually needs to contain an opening and closing "
So here's what one (who'd uneducated, like me:) ) would write, but it gags
on the "\"
If I take out the beginning "\ and the ending \" it will set the (Default)
key with the string, sans quote marks.
I haven't browsed Jeremy's blog yet - that's where I'm off to next! ;)
Set objWSHShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Const REG_SZ = "REG_SZ"
UpdateRegKey
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\AcroExch.Document.7\protocol\StdFileEditing\server\",
"\"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe"\", REG_SZ
Sub UpdateRegKey(strRegPath, strValue, strType)
objWSHShell.RegWrite strRegPath, strValue, strType
End Sub
