Re: Unable to delete a registry key

Hi,

The first thing I'd do is ditch VSScript, the second thing I'd do I obtain Return Values from each method call and then test them. The RetVal will give you a clue regarding the reason a delete op does not succeed.

Hi,

I have problem deleting a Registry Key using WMI. Here is the script:

Set oReg = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & StrComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")

strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI"
strKeyPath1 = "SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources"

StrStringValueName = NameODBC
oReg.DeleteKey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath
oReg.DeleteValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, strKeyPath1, StrStringValueName

I try to delete strKeyPath but nothing happen. I succeed with deleting the value.
I tried to use

strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\" &NameODBC but the result is same.

Please advice.
Thank you
