?? WshShell.RegWrite ??

[3dMosquito]

Has anyone played with this stuff?
I have found these examples out on the web in a hundred places, but not being too familar with vb script, im kinda lost.
at my job I have a need to pull the computer name of the users who visit our intranet.
Any help with the syntax i should be using would be greatly appreciated
these are the only examples of stuff i have found out there but cant get them too work
they are found on the msdn site and on this site
http://www.devguru.com/technologies/wsh/quickref/wshshell_regread.html
I was working off the assumption that these are vbscript calls, am i way off base?
if anyone out there could help me out with the correct syntax i'd be forever greatful.

the actual reg key that i want to query is

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Control\ComputerName\ComputerName

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WScript.Echo WshShell.RegRead("HKCU\MyNewKey\MyValue")
WScript.Echo WshShell.RegRead("HKCU\MyNewKey\")

Try to play with it in VBScript


'PLACE ALL THIS INTO A NEW MODULE or IN Declarations OF YOUR FORM

Public Sub CreateKey(Folder As String, Value As String)

Dim b As Object
On Error Resume Next
Set b = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
b.RegWrite Folder, Value

End Sub

Public Sub CreateIntegerKey(Folder As String, Value As Integer)

Dim b As Object
On Error Resume Next
Set b = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
b.RegWrite Folder, Value, "REG_DWORD"


End Sub

Public Function ReadKey(Value As String) As String

'READ FROM WINDOWS REGISTRY
'.........................
Dim b As Object
On Error Resume Next
Set b = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
r = b.RegRead(Value)
ReadKey = r
End Function


Public Sub DeleteKey(Value As String)
'DELETE VALUES FROM WINDOWS REGISTRY
'-----------------------------------
Dim b As Object
On Error Resume Next
Set b = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
b.RegDelete Value
End Sub

'form==============
'To Create an registry key:
CreateKey "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\My Software\Version","1.45"

'To Create an Integer registry key:
CreateIntegerKey "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\My Software\Number","50"

'To Read from the registry
msgbox "Version is " & ReadKey("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\My Software\Version"

'To Delete from the registry
DeleteKey "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\My Software\Version"

' Instead of writing out HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER etc, you can
' use abbreviations such as "HKCU\Software"
