    Im writing a script to check the virus def version of McAfee against another server. However, because of the realities of life, I dont expect them to be exact every time. Is it possible to a If <> then, statement have a buffer, so it could be with in a range something like If <>+5 then....  That way it has to be within 5 numbers to trigger the then statement.   I have attached the script below. Thanks ahead of time!!!

Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002
   Set StdOut = WScript.StdOut

   'Below are the config settings for the script. Enter the PC names that are to be checked
   strComputer = ("computer1")
   strComputer2= ("computer2")
  
   'This checks the remote registry
   Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &_
   strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
   ' This is the actual Registry path that you wish to goto
   strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Network Associates\TVD\Shared Components\VirusScan Engine\4.0.xx"
   'This is the Value that you are trying to return
   strValueName = "szVirDefVer"
   ' This actually shows the whole path, HKLM, where you are going to (strKeyPath), and the value (strValue)
   oReg.GetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,strValueName,strValue
   'This pops up a message saying hi!
   'MsgBox "Current Virus Def is: " & strValue
  
   Set oReg2=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &_
   strComputer2 & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
   strKeyPath2 = "SOFTWARE\Network Associates\TVD\Shared Components\VirusScan Engine\4.0.xx"
   strValueName2 = "szVirDefVer"
   oReg2.GetStringValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath2,strValueName2,strValue2
   'MsgBox "Current Virus Def is: " & strValue2
   ' The below statement compares the two values and see's if they are identical. If they are not, It activates
       ' the subroutine of "Email" if it is correct, it does nothing
   If strValue <> strValue2 Then
       Email
   End If

Something like this:

nRange = 5
nVal1 = 'Whatever is on server 1
nVal2 = 'Whatever is on server 2

If (nVal2 >= (nVal1-nRange)) And (nVal2 <= (nVal1 + nRange)) Then
   'It is ok
Else
   'It is not
End if

To be on the safe side you may want to ensure the value you retrieve from the registry is treated as a number by using the CInt function

i.e. 
strValue  = CInt(strValue)
strValue2  = CInt(strValue2)

and then try what ebgreen suggested.
