Microsoft MSDN Library: RegRead MethodTo 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.
WshShell = new ActiveXObject( "WScript.Shell" );
str = WshShell.RegRead( "HKCU\\Software\\EmSoft\\EmEditor v3\\Common\\MacroFile"
);
alert( str );
Set WshShell = CreateObject( "WScript.Shell" )
str = WshShell.RegRead( "HKCU\Software\EmSoft\EmEditor v3\Common\MacroFile" )
alert str
In JavaScript, if you want to include a backslash "\" within a string, it must be preceded by another backslash "\\".
