DB server on network

[Pohihihi]

Hello,

How can I get the list of all and any kind of database servers on a given
domain, network (mysql, ms-sql server, oracle etc)? I want to show it in a
dropdown list for the user to select it. Also how can I get list of
databases on those servers?

Thx,

Po

Is your code is going to be installed at diferent computer all the time is
very frustrating to have to install the SQLDMO and register it
