I would like to modify my script to look up strkeypath in two different locations of the registry

first the path with which the script works fine:
SOFTWARE\Comanyname\Softwarename\Version9.3

and now if the above path does not exist I want the script to get the value from this path:
SOFTWARE\Comanyname\Softwarename\Version9.5

Here is the script:

Const HKLM = &H80000002
       strComputer = "."
       Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" &_
       strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")
       strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\Comanyname\Softwarename\Version9.3"
       strValueName = "Serial Number"
       oReg.GetStringValue HKLM,strKeyPath,strValueName,strValue

Hi,
Had to do this myself recently... The result from the reg lookup is a 0 for a good lookup (string existed) and non-0 for a failure, (basically). The success/failure can be assigned to a varaible at the same time that the return value can be gained from the parameter to the call. Here was my ver:

errOut = objWMIRegistry.getStringValue (HKLM, strAVRegKey, strAVVerRegEntry, arrInfo (19))
   If errOut <> 0 Then
    errOut = objWMIRegistry.getStringValue (HKLM, strAVRegKey2, strAVVerRegEntry2, arrInfo (19))
   End If
   If errOut <> 0 Then arrInfo (19) = "Check Registry!"

Hope that helped.

Ara
