I have no idea what "object.jreversion" is, I have never seen it before and searches turned up nothing for VBScript.

You could try using the coomandline "java -version" as a starting point.

Would require a little checking for the correct folder, but you could use java.exe -version to get the JRE version.

On my PC , c:\program files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin\java.exe gives me something like

java version "1.4.2"
java(tm) 2 Runtime Environemtn, Standard Edition )build 1.4.2-b28)
Java HotSpot(tm) Client VM (build 1.4.2-b28, mixed mode)

You can possibly find this path via the reg key found in HKCR\applications\javaw.exe\shell\open\command\(default)

Not positive if this key will be present for all versions, also, you would want to use java.exe and not javaw.exe as javaw doesn't give you anything or so it seems.

I thought that is what I said two days ago...

Also "java" should be in path and all you should have to do is type "java -version".

hey guys!

I've constructed a code which can check the version. It will scan thru control panel-add/remove new programs. I just wanna if its accurate?

Function checkVersion()

appName = "Java"
appName2 = "J2SE R"
strProdList = ""
Set msiObject = Wscript.CreateObject("WindowsInstaller.Installer")
For Each msiProduct In msiObject.Products
if left(msiObject.ProductInfo(msiProduct, "ProductName"),6) = appName2 then
         checkVersion = msiObject.ProductInfo(msiProduct, "ProductName")
  elseif left(msiObject.ProductInfo(msiProduct, "ProductName"),4) = appName then
  checkVersion = msiObject.ProductInfo(msiProduct, "ProductName")
END IF
Next

End Function

Thanks

I have no idea if this is the best way to do this or not but at least use the function as one, otherwise just use the code inline. See if this still meets your needs.
