wmic not a recognized comand

[Jason]

Hello, when I try to run wmic from a cmd prompt, I recieve the following
error.....
C:\>wmic
'wmic' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.


What module am I missing?

Thanks
J

Jason,

The component that contains what you are after is the "WMI Command Line
Utility" component. You can find it by creating a filter in Target Designer
and using wmic.exe as the filter criteria. For more information on making
filters in TD look at Jon Fincher's article here:

(Look about half way down the page.)

You may also want to search for "WMI" in Target Designer to make sure that
all the WMI bits that you need are already in the runtime.

P.S. If your not using XP Embedded (since it wasn't mentioned) try the same
question in the Windows XP general group.

HTH,
Brad
