Fetching contents of 'Programs and Features'

hi,

I am using macro scheduler 11. Windows 7 32-bit operating system. I wanted to fetch the information of installed programs in 'Control Panel' -> 'Programs and Features'. GetWindowText and GetWindowTextEx both is not returning the data. Can someone help me in extracting the data.

Thanks in advance.
uv.

Another, and possibly better, solution would be to automate WMIC which can dump an installed program list to a text file:

Code: Select all

Run Program>wmic /output:c:\yourfolder\proglist.txt product get name,version

You'll have to play with the options to get exactly what you want.

Thanks Me,

With this command,

wmic /output:c:\yourfolder\proglist.txt product get name,version

we are not getting list of all installed programs. Is there any alternative.

Thanks
