RegRead Help

[Pook]

I'm not 100% sure how to use the RegRead command. If the main key below doesn't exist or just doesn't have a value Then how would you make the script check a different Reg key?

*kinda like a If/Else command in Vbscript

(main Key)

$username = RegRead('\\'& $PC & '\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon','AltDefaultUserName')

(back-up Key)

$username = RegRead('\\'& $PC & '\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TrendMicro\PC-cillinNTCorp\CurrentVersion\Real Time Scan Configuration','UserName')

what's the problem ? (post the part of script that does not func right)

RegRead ( "keyname", "valuename" )

example:

$var = RegRead("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion", "ProgramFilesDir")
MsgBox(4096, "Program files are in:", $var)
