Subject: RE: Find Version of Internet Explorer
I've found that M$' lists are incomplete... I've tried putting together a
list that is a little more complete than the Q article but I am sure that I
am missing some as well.
The problem being is that they have different version numbers for IE
distributed with Visual Studio, as opposed to the IE that was distributed
with MS Office, and so on (even if they were the same build of IE, which you
will see once in the attached INI..
If anyone has additions or finds mistakes I'd love to know.
Steven

And for the cherry on top, see this for a cross reference of build numbers
to version and SP.

This code would work:
use strict;
use Win32::Registry;
my $server = 'MyServer';
getIEVersion($server);
#############################
sub getIEVersion {
#############################
my($server) = shift;
use vars qw ($HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE );
my $Registry_HKLM;
$HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->Win32::Registry::Connect($server, $Registry_HKLM);
unless ($Registry_HKLM) {
print "Unable to Connect to HKLM on $server\n";
}
my $IE;
$Registry_HKLM->Open('SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer', $IE);
unless ($IE) {
print "Unable to open SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Internet Explorer on
$server\n";
}
my ($value, $type);
$IE->QueryValueEx('Version', $type, $value);
if ($value) {
print "IE version = $value\n";
}
else {
print "Error: unable to read from Version value.\n";
}
} # getIEVersion
