' The goal of this tools is to read a .reg file and generate a .admx that would allow us to set those settings thru GPO

' +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
' | App.Name :	REG_2_ADMXL.vbs							                        |
' | App.Description :	                                                        |
' |                     This tools reads a .reg file and generates a ADMX/ADML  |
' | pair of files that would allow us to set those settings thru GPO            |
' |                     This file accepts 3 parameters: 						|
' |	                        1) Reg File to convert								|
' |							2) Default Language (i.e.: en-US or sp-AR, po-BR)   |
' |							3) (optional) Display Name to show in the GPO													|
' |																				|
' |                     The output file will be named after the .REG file (if	|
' | the input is myfile.REG, the output will be myfile.ADMX and myfile.ADML)	|
' |	                    The ADMX output file will be saved in the same folder   |
' | the input .REG file is located												|
' |	                    The ADML output file will be saved in a subfolder of    |
' | the one the .REG file is located. The subfolder will be named after the 	|
' |	Language specified.															|
' |						So, if the reg file is C:\myapp\myfile.reg and the lang |
' | is en-US, then the ADMX file will be as in C:\myAPP\myfile.ADMX and the     |
' | ADML file will be saved as C:\myAPP\en-US\myfile.ADMX						|
' |																				|
' |																				|
' |																				|
' |	                    This file does a very simple assignment of input fields |
' |	If the data type is a dword a numeric textbox is used, otherwise a textbox  |
' | will be used.                               								|
' |	                    In my experience, this is good enought for 90% of the	|
' | cases. And if you would like fancier stuff (like comboboxes, listboxes,     |
' | date picker, etc.) you can still use this tool to generate the initial file |
' | and then add the stuff you need.                            				|
