GetRegistry
The GetRegistry function allows a script to retrieve a value from a registry
Syntax |
GetRegistry (Name, Default) |
Description |
Reads a value from a registry. |
Arguments |
Name {string} The Name defines the entry in the registry that is to be read by the script. The Name you enter has to match the name of the required registry.
Default {string or integer} The Default value is an optional variant and is used to define the value that will be used if the script cannot find an entry in the registry. |
Returns |
Returns a string or integer value from the registry. |
NOTE: The registry values are usually stored in the
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Schneider Electric\ClearSCADA\ViewX/Mimics key in the registry on your client PC.
Example:
RegValue = GetRegistry("CoreReg", 17)
This sets the RegValue variable (defined earlier in the script) to have the same value as the value stored in the CoreReg registry. If the script cannot find a value in the registry, the value 17 is used instead and is also created in the registry.
