Windows registry question

[Lynch, Jonathan]

I am trying to figure out how to obtain printer information from the
registry.

Rev doesn't really allow perfect printer control. I want to create a
one-stop substack that works as a printer dialog box, but allows for
proper control of printer choice, collating, page numbers, etc... For
windows, anyway. Probably none of this is necessary for Mac or Linux.

Some printer information (network printers, I believe) is contained, for
example, in HKEY_CURRENT_USERS\PRINTERS\CONNECTIONS

It is not the key that I need, but the list of folders contained under
CONNECTIONS.

I probably will have to resort to running a vbscript in Cscript.exe -
but it would be nice not to have to do that. My VB skills are shaky, to
say the least, and a Rev-only solution allows for such great flexibility
when changes need to be made.

Hi Jonathan

sorry, i couldn't find something quick but it's probably via vbs only...

but i haven't found the right script to do it...

Actually, you either need to create a key and it's usually
preset how to do it or you try to modify one so it's usually 
not necessary to read the whole structure unless you're scanning
for something or cleaning up the registry - which many tools 
do already... 

what do you need to do?

cheers
