<h3><span style='font-family:Verdana'>SUMMARY<o:p></o:p></span></h3>

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana'>wmicli is a Win32
application that illustrates the support for Window Management Instrumentation
(WMI) in Windows 2000. </span><span style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:
12.0pt;font-family:Verdana'>WMI is the Microsoft implementation of Web-Based Enterprise
Management (WBEM), which is an industry initiative to develop a standardized
technology for accessing management information in an enterprise environment.
WMICli uses COM based WMI API to query properties and methods implemented by
drivers under Windows 2000. Users can view values of the properties.</span><span

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana'>The code
is 64-bit compliant and builds properly with Microsoft Visual C 6.0. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
