Change Users Variables - Delphi IDE

Question

I am using an automated build tool called Automated Build Studio.

I have defined in the Delphi IDE, as you can see in the screenshot, a user variable $(PLKFW) which points to a specific folder in my computer.

The question is:

How can I change this $(PLKFW) variable without using the delphi IDE?

i don't understand your question. Do you want to know the location where the Delphi IDE store these variables to change manually this values? — RRUZ, Apr 14 '11 at 20:15
I want an way of changing this variable outside the IDe, no mater how. — Rafael Colucci, Apr 14 '11 at 20:16
check this windows registry location `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CodeGear\BDS\7.0\Environment Variables` — RRUZ, Apr 14 '11 at 20:18
@RRUZ Do you know if there is an way of changing this variable using a {$} directive? — Rafael Colucci, Apr 14 '11 at 21:16

The Environment Variables defined in the Delphi 2010 IDE are stored in this windows registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\CodeGear\BDS\7.0\Environment Variables

just remember be careful when you edit this kind of IDE setting externally (without use the delphi IDE).
