Making a CAB to put in serial numbers

Sorry about this basic question...but I have searched, and tried some tutorials I found on the web and I can't get it right.

I simply want to make a CAB that will put the serial numbers of some of my PPC software into the registry. Now that I am hard resetting with some frequency, I am trying to make some of the re-set up steps simpler.

I have done the registry dumps and WinDiff, and think that I have isolated the proper keys. But I am stuck at making the INF file. It would appear that I cannot leave certain headings blank, such as [SourceDisksNames], [SourceDisksFiles], [DestinationDirs]. I have no idea what to put in these, if I simply want to add a couple of keys to the registry.

I did try to unassemble some CABs (such as luv2chill's VC button 5 fix) with MSCEinf that didn't help. From that, it would appear to have empty [SourceDisksFiles] and [DestinationDirs]--which CabWizSP complains of if I try to leave them empty.

Any help to get started is appreciated.
