@RAd Yes, it is @aki, The problem is not with the syntax, but smething to do with permissions. The code is OK because scriptomatic-generated scripts [google scriptomatic] aren't generating any output. Besides, Win32_.... is a collection of objects from which I want to select the ones that begin with 'Datac'. Once I get a list of those objects, then I get attributes of each of those objects such as Name.. etc. Does that make sense?
@Simon, I checked sdk and still cannot find the object you are looking for. What class/object is ' datac ' under? WMI query has 494 classes. :-)
Further to this, an example that I was working on last year : to enable auto DHCP ( execute WMI ) - Class = Win_32NetworkAdapterConfiguration ( has 41 methods and each method has parameters you can assign ) - Method = "EnableDHCP" - Instance = index of NIC cards/DUN/PPP, thus code the correct index number. usual for-each loop..... foreach(<variable> in <object>) { //statement } Result : When code script was run, it would enable DHCP. Corrections welcome...
