Can anyone tell me where I can look for the registry key that will verify
that SP2 has been installed on a pc.

I am accessing remote network registry to verify my users have SP2 installed.

A few registries that I have accessed have the entry under Updates for both
Windows and the Office suite. But it is not consistent from pc to pc. One pc
that I know I have both SP's installed did not show up.


Thanks in advance for any help on this

You can verify the current XP version by checking a key at this
Registry location:

HKey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\
CurrentVersion

Key Name BuildLab
This is the key value shown when you perform a Winver.

Another useful key might be the CSDVersion which will hold
a string such as "Service Pack 2"

Right click on MY COMPUTER and select Properties, under the General tab it
will say what service pack you have.

That's true, but re-read the original posting. The OP is using Remote
Registry to make the determination.

Thanks so much
And yes I am doing it using Remote Registry. I am going to try to use
ScriptLogic to check the key for verification and if not to run the install
from a location where I have downloaded it.

Thanks for your help, I will give it a try.
