roofninja Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I am not sure what I am getting when I issue these commands. I was expecting to see "7.50" or "7.70" not "117440562" or "117440582". It doesn't look like HEX, so what is it? What I am trying to do is to find a way to say if this reg key is there, this do this else if this reg key is there, do this other thing. MsgBox(0,"java 7.50",RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83217005FF}","Version")) MsgBox(0,"java 7.70",RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83217007FF}","Version")) RUN . . .

FireFox Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Hi, And what is the reg type of the key you want to read? Check if the value is the one you expect to have. Br, FireFox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
water Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) You have to interpret the value you get from RegRead. According to the docu @extended holds the type of the value. $Value = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall{26A24AE4-039D-4CA4-87B4-2F83217005FF}","Version") If @error then Exit MsgBox(0, "Error", "Error reading the registry: " & @error) $iType = @extended Switch $iType Case <value> ; $Value = statement Case Else ; $Value = statement EndSwitch MsgBox(0,"java 7.50", $Value) Edited October 15, 2012 by water My UDFs and Tutorials: Spoiler UDFs:Active Directory (NEW 2022-02-19 - Version 1.6.1.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiExcelChart (2017-07-21 - Version 0.4.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example ScriptsOutlookEX (2021-11-16 - Version 1.7.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiOutlookEX_GUI (2021-04-13 - Version 1.4.0.0) - DownloadOutlook Tools (2019-07-22 - Version 0.6.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - WikiPowerPoint (2021-08-31 - Version 1.5.0.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiTask Scheduler (NEW 2022-07-28 - Version 1.6.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Wiki Standard UDFs:Excel - Example Scripts - WikiWord - Wiki Tutorials:ADO - WikiWebDriver - Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Use DisplayVersion instead of Version for the key name. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

roofninja Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 I wanted to give an update and I have finished the script. I did use the DisplayVerison. I didn't realize that I was using the wrong reg key. Once I figured that out, the rest was simple. Thanks for all the help. It really was a Monday. RUN . . . Slide . . . TAG . . . Your out . . .
