Please mark this request as BOGUS!
Wrap the variable into a variant object, then make the function call:
$com_reg = new
COM("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\\\.\\root\\default:StdR
egProv");
$value = new VARIANT();
$com_reg -> getStringValue('subtree', "key\\subkey", 'entryName',
$value);
print $value;

Description:
------------
When COM is used to retrieve an out parameters value in a function
call, the value remains empty.
See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/getstringvalue_method_in_class_stdregprov.asp
Reproduce code:
---------------
$com_reg = new
COM("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\\\.\\root\\default:StdRegProv");
$value = 'old_value';
$com_reg -> getStringValue('subtree', "key\\subkey", 'entryName',
$value);
print $value;
Expected result:
----------------
The value from the registry key 'subtree\key\subkey\entryName' should
be printed.
Actual result:
--------------
The value 'old_value' that is declared earlier in the code is printed.
