    Cool

    Can someone please help me? I am trying to read the registry on Windows NT Server 4.0 using VBScript. I would rather not have to use API calls unless it is absolutely necessary. I am trying to get the machines 'computer name' under the identification tab of the Network Neighborhood Properties. I have it located in the registry, but it seems that my scripts do not work properly. Please help...

    thanks

    You can't directly read from the registry thru VBScript/ASP, you'll need a component to do that for you

    fortunately, you can use the Scripting Object Model to do this for you, and I have whipped up some ASP code to show you how

    Code:
    <%@Language=VBScript EnableSessionState=False%>
<% option explicit %>
<html>
<body>
<%
    
    Dim objNetwork
    
    Set objNetwork = Server.CreateObject("WScript.Network")
    
    Response.Write "Computer Name:  " & objNetwork.ComputerName
    
    Set objNetwork = Nothing
%>

</body>
</html>
