WMI script to get Win32_ProductI have this script
Dim query As New ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Select * from Win32_Product") Debug.Write(query.Get().Count) For Each mo As ManagementObject In query.Get Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(mo("Name")) Next but it returns nothing, however other WMI scripts work fine...This should list all the software instaled on a system. Why does it return nothing? Hi,
I never have had any problems with using Win32_Product. I would suspect it has something to do with your query. Select * from Select * from Win32_Product Should be Select * from Win32_Product Ken ------------------------- Show quoteHide quote "Brian Henry" wrote: > I have this script > > Dim query As New ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * from Select * from > Win32_Product") > > Debug.Write(query.Get().Count) > > For Each mo As ManagementObject In query.Get > > Me.ListBox1.Items.Add(mo("Name")) > > Next > > > > but it returns nothing, however other WMI scripts work fine...This should > list all the software instaled on a system.

has nothing to do with the query, In code it is only "select * from Win32_Product", what happens is when i step through it line by line, when it hits this line For Each mo As ManagementObject In query.Get the execution of the sub just stops and it jumps out of the sub... execute query.get on its own line and the same thing happens, no code is executed after that statement in the sub... (this is on win xp pro 64-bit edition, in ..NET 2.0) so when i step to that line .. press the button for stepping on the line to step again it just jumps from that line and out of the sub... im just confused... when i do any other WMI query they execute perfectly fine.. fixed it turned out WMI isnt installed on 64bit windows xp by default
*rolles eyes* because its based on windows server not xp..

The WMI is installed with xp pro x64. I really dont understand why it is not working on your system because the code ran fine on my xp x64 pro system.
