Much simpler than compiling and installing a COM object module. :-) To answer everyone's curiosity as to why I want to access the registry, I am working on my home computer with a dynamic IP, and I need to know what it is so I can modify my httpd.conf (or hosts) file, if necessary. The ASP page I am converting is my browser home page, which has lots of useful stuff I obtain with server side scripts. Here is a snapshot (no, this isn't my home server). http://crash.thedatalist.com/temp/home16m.png I am currently running both servers (Apache and IIS), but I'd like to use a universal scripting format. -- Crash Please reply to the group.
