hi all,

I have a registry key called "packages" - HKLM\SOFTWARE\MYDOMAIN\PACKAGES
this key contains string values with value names such as "Package_252" or "Package_217"
there may be none of these string values or there may be quite a few.

I would like to be able to retrieve these value names in order to tell which workstations have which packages (if any)
I have checked out a few googles but they all seem to be about retrieving info about a 'known' string value.

A point in the right direction would be appreciated.

Thanks very much.
Osk.

Thanks for the swift response :).

I was getting an error though
C:\Program Files\SAPIEN\PrimalScript Professional\Untitled1.vbs(38, 8) WshShell.RegRead: Invalid root in registry key "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ICL\Libra\Packages\PKG_0000178_A1"

i removed this: oWSH.RegRead("HKLM\" & strKeyPath & "\" & arrNames(i))
from this line WScript.Echo arrNames(i) oWSH.RegRead("HKLM\" & strKeyPath & "\" & arrNames(i))

as it appeared to be qyerying the actual string value name (that's the best way i can explain it, forgive me.)

any way, now it spits out the string value names perfect !!

That's sorted out my headache :)

Many thanks,
Osk
