Applications may wish to take different actions on startup depending on if it is the application’s first run, and if it is an application upgrade or a clean install. This can be easily determined by saving state in the registry. Here is an example function:
Function RunStatus()
currentversion = "1.3"
s = CreateObject("roRegistrySection", "Version")
if not s.Exists("Number") then
return "first-run-clean-install"
elseif s.Read("Number") = currentversion then
return "re-run"
else
return "first-run-upgrade"
end if
end Function
