Is there any way to get the users login name from the registry using VBScript? I can do it in VB6 but it requires a module.

somebody correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think that is possible. That would be a big time security risk from a scripting language. I think your best bet is going to be prompting the user for their name and storing it in a session variable or a cookie.

you can do it in VBScript, your users might get a security message though:


<html>

<head>

<script language=vbscript>

sub ReadIt()

dim oShell

set oShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

alert(oShell.RegRead("HKCR\.vbp\"))

end sub


</script>

</head>

<body onload="ReadIt()">




</body>

</html>
