appending multi_sz

Situation: Our app runs on Apache Tomcat, which now (ver 5.x) stores some Java Options in a mult_sz registry entry. Several of these settings are dynamic (depending upon user input, configuration and etc.) so I need to write them via setup.rul (vs. static entries which could be set in the registry design view).

I can't figure out how to append to the list via the install script (nor pass the null to define a new line).

Seems that I read somwhere that one might have to create a list of current values first? Then write them all back, including the new one (obvioulsly, I would much rather append if possible).

From the registry view, one can append values to a multi_sz so I assume that it can also be done from the script. Just don't know how to do it.

Any help would be outstanding.
