Hi,<br />
<br />
I need a script that will be able to query a reg_sz key in the registry within HKLM. <br />
<br />
I would then like the vbscript to call another Windows Batch file and pass the key as a variable into this script. I assume I can then use %1 within the batch script.<br />
<br />
Thanks

Vbscript to query a registry key and pass to a batch file

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
