HI,

generally we can see the list of programs installed on our machine from Add
or Remove programs.
I need to write a VB code to read the Programs listed there.
I have to use a windows API Call in Visual Basic 6.0 to read this list from
Add or Remove Programs.
can any one please help me

It's not an API. The info is contained in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\

This URL has a VBScript for reading it http://billsway.com/vbspage/ about half way down.
