How to programmatically read registry for instance and versions of 3 apps...
Posted by Phillip on September 26th, 2005



I need a way for a user to run a program that will check the user's local pc
for installation and version of 3 applications:

1. Outlook (all versions)
2. Goldmine (all versions)
3. ACT! (all versions)

I would also need a way to determine the last launch date for each app.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

Phillip

You can get some of that information, using Belarc

http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

Otherwise check out "FileSystemObject" & "RegRead" using Windows Script Host
