I havent touched mirc scripting in like ... 5 years :P so don't shoot me down :P can someone give me simple demonstration how can mirc (6x version if possible) read certain data from windows registry, and returned value echo in window for example to read windows SKU, under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version: ProductName

The trick is to use a COM object to execute some VB #mircscripting @ irc.swiftirc.net == the best mIRC help channel
