Manipulate the Registry (Tutorial)¶
To manipulate the registry, use the RegRead Method, RegWrite Method, and RegDelete Method of WshShell Object.
The following example code reads the file name of a running macro from the registry, and displays it. In JavaScript, if you want to include a backslash "\" within a string,
it must be preceded by another backslash "\\".¶
[JavaScript (JScript)]¶
WshShell = new ActiveXObject( "WScript.Shell" );
str = WshShell.RegRead( "HKCU\\\\Software\\\\EmSoft\\\\EmEditor v3\\\\Common\\\\MacroFile");
alert( str );
[VBScript]¶
Set WshShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
str = WshShell.RegRead( "HKCU\\Software\\EmSoft\\EmEditor v3\\Common\\MacroFile" )
alert str
