can someone tell if i'm going in the right direction.
here's my script:
$check=ReadValue("HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings","MinorVersion")
If $check=("Q811383")
"YES IT WORKS"
else
"IT DON'T WORK"
ENDIF

now i know this don't work & the string returned has more entries i.e. ";SP1;Q811383;"

i need to know how to check if the string 'contains' "Q811383"

I'm thinking using SPLIT() specifying ";" as the delimiter to grab a substring.

Is this the best/easiest method to use?

The "MinorVersion" could vary on any of the PC's running the script so i don't have a set string i can split (if yeah know what a mean)
cheers
