You trap the error.
On error resume next
Set val = wshshell.regread ...
If err then
Do something
Else
Something else
End If
On error goto 0

Subject: VBScript and registry
What's the right way to check for a value in the registry, and if its not
there then I can do what I need.
I have a custom key we use, HKLM\My Custom Key\... but if I attempt a
WshShell.RegRead "HKLM\My Custom Key\" and its not yet created I get an
error? So what's the equivalent "if exist" method?
Thanks!
