    Why are most examples in VBScript?

    In trying to figure out WMI, LDAP, & ADSI, all the code I've found is
    VBScript. Has no one ever developed a VB .NET app using any of these
    technologies? Why no sample code anywhere?

    I guess that it is because those technologies can be used by system admins,
    and VBScript can be used with Notepad and does not require types or much
    programming knowledge. Few of them would know to use VS.NET.

      In addition to the other replies, note that the group
      "microsoft.publ ic.dotnet.frame work.wmi" is dedicated to WMI+.NET-related
      questions.

        Than you probably did not visit the websites from regulars from this
        newsgroup. It is not much however I know that at least Herfried and we have
        some wmi samples.



        On our site you can just search for WMI

        I hope this helps,

        Cor
