hi to all...in my below code i am trying to check whether the registry path exists or not but i am encountering some problem please have a look at it
Code:

RegSearchTarget =SOFTWARE\ETAS\ETKControlPanel\ ; I want to check whether this path exists or not
Gosub, RegSearch
return

RegSearch:
ContinueRegSearch = y
Loop, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, , 1,1
{
   Gosub, CheckThisRegItem
   if ContinueRegSearch = n ; 
      return
}
return

CheckThisRegItem:
if A_LoopRegkey = KEY   
   return
RegRead, RegValue
if ErrorLevel <> 0
msgbox not present
   return
IfInString, RegValue, %RegSearchTarget%
{
   MsgBox, 4, , The following match was found:`n%A_LoopRegKey%\%A_LoopRegSubKey%\%A_LoopRegName%`nValue = %RegValue%`n`nContinue?
   IfMsgBox, No
      ContinueRegSearch = n
}
return

well actually the above path exists but still it says not present and no matter how many times you press the OK button on msgbox it never ends
your help is always appreciated

because you dont loop at all... the condition to loop is initially FALSE (there is no registry path to loop through) so the command immediately following will never be executed, in this case the If/Else structure

Loop, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,SOFTWARE\ETAS -> If ETAS-Key isnt there, the loop will never run. So there will be no messagebox.
Try:
Code:
count=0
Loop, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,SOFTWARE\ETAS,1
  count:=A_INDEX
if count=0
 msgbox,4,, does not exist.
else
   msgbox, The registry exists.

gui,add,button,,OK
gui,show
Return
