I can get key values but do not know how to get a list of SubKeyNames then take those SubKeyNames and pass that to get a key value from each SubKey. I have read most of the UDF's/Posts and can not find this info. How would I get SubKeyNames and values from those keys? Specifically from HKCU\Network - I want to list all the drives listed (i.e. SubKeys of \Network) and the UNC path, "RemotePath" value, listed in each SubKey. How can I do this?

EnumValue() is used to well... enumerate the values, so EnumKey() would enumerate the keys. Am I missing something?

I tried fEnumKey() and could not get it to work. It wont list the subkeys for HKCU\network, weird.

I am not talking about the UDF but rather the built-in KiX EnumKey(). Are you sure you have your terminology right? In RegEdit, the 'keys' are in the left pane while the 'values' are in the right pane.

My HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Network key is totally empty so cannot see what you are trying to see.

here is something for you to look at..

Code:
$index = 0

While @Error = 0

   $key = EnumKey("HKCU\Network",$index)

   If $key

      $value = ReadValue ("HKCU\network\"+$key,"RemotePath")

      ? $key

      ? "Path : "+$value

      ?

   Endif

   $index = $index+1

Loop



get $


If you tell us what it is exactly that you're trying to accomplish we could probably help you more extensively.

Oh and Les...The HKCU\Network seems to just hold persistent drive mapping information (on XP Pro atleast).

If you map a network share and make it persistant, a subkey will show up under \Network for that drive letter you just mapped. i.e.
-Network
F <-- Subkey (folders, with values in them)
G
H

Shane,
Your code assumes @Error not to be thrown from a prior function. Better to clear it before entering your loop just to be sure. A lesson may be gleened from:
Structured EnumKey Loop /w a single EnumKey

Good point...I like the following one the best then...

Code:
$index = Execute("Exit 0")
While @Error <> 259
   $key = EnumKey("HKCU\Network",$index)
   If $key
      $value = ReadValue ("HKCU\network\"+$key,"RemotePath")
      ? $key
      ? "Path : "+$value
      ?
   Endif
   $index = $index+1
Loop

get $

What does the Get $ on the last line do?

It just causes the script to pause until a key is hit.

See also ArrayEnumKey() and ArrayEnumValue() in the UDF Library.
