Just had a quick read here and it looks like its using COM http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/wmi_start_page.asp If it's COM object access only then I would say it's not usable from Blitz+.

You'd have to create a dll layer between blitz and WMI. Not impossible. But a pain in the butt at the very least. Kanati

Just looked at it... it's possible with VC to create that layer of abstraction... or even VB with that special little tool that allows exportable functions. But since I know little about that SDK and it'd be a VERY niche audience (audience of 1 probably), I think I'll have to pass on making it myself. Kanati

Nope. And vb script is easy to learn. Using blitz to access WMI or ADSI is a bit over the top , i think =]

If you would want to make an app like that, hell yes!
