Command GETREG
Function:
Get a System Registry value or enumerate all the names for the specified hkey. The value is stored in an environment variable called GETREG.
Syntax:
GETREG hkey [name]
| hkey | Specifies the path of the complete key. |
| name | Specifies the name of the value to retrieve. |
Note:
- Parameter hkey must begin with one of the following System Registry names :-
| HKEY_USERS |
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER |
| HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE |
| HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT |
and all the sub-keys must be separated by backslashes (ie. ' \ '), For example :-
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\WinOne\WinOne
- The following types of values may be retrieved using command GETREG :-
| REG_SZ | A null terminated string. |
| REG_DWORD | A 32 bit number. |
| REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN | Same as REG_DWORD. |
| REG_DWORD_BIG_ENDIAN | A 32 bit number which is automatically converted to REG_DWORD format. |
| REG_MULTI_SZ | A list of null terminated strings. Each entry is separated with comma's. |
- When parameter name is not specified then command GETREG will enumerate all the names contained in the specified hkey and create a list which contains all the names separated by comma's.
- Command GETREG is not available under Win32s, since WIn32s does not support a System Registry.
