Works on 2k/XP - Invalid Syntax on NT4 - [Resolved]

**jlegan** · Apr 21st, 2003, 10:23 AM

The following code works on 2000/XP but generates an error: Invalid Syntax on WinNT 4.0. Does anyone know what the proper syntax for WinNT40/2000/XP would be?

VB Code:

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
 
Set objReg = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv")

What service pack on your NT 4 installed?

You may need update some components on NT.

Ran the example there, WSH came back as 5.6 & I got a syntax error on that line:

VB Code:

Set objWMI = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\computername\root\cimv2")

I just ran it on an NT 4.0 SP6 w/WSH 5.1 box and it runs OK but fails on WSH 5.6
