Thank you in advance for any and all assistance. I'm attempting to make WMI
calls in VB.NET 2005 Pro and I've found the VB.Script WMI calls. Is there a
SDK or converter to convert scripts to VB.NET?

I want to find out "all" installed software> "all" hardware > register in
read only > startup config files (win.ini, system.ini, "msconfig" type read
only)

I can find the scripts and when I try and use the code, I get WScript.echo
is not declared and I can't build and see if the information I need is there.
HELP!!

This is a piece of code I wrote to query the WMI. I hope it can help you
out.

ESol,

We have this on our website.

However, I think that you are more clever to do it direct in VBNet as there
are samples enough how to use WMI in VBNet, as Terry gave you one.

I hope this helps,

Cor
