MMC snap in's in .Net...

[Daniel Bass]

I need to create a configuration applcation that displays tables of data,
which the user can add to, change, remove, and then save to the registry.

This is a piece of cake, but it was suggested I look into creating a snap in
for the Microsoft Management Console and there doesn't seem to be much
documentation around, especially using .Net.

If you could point me to some documentation or give me a clue as to whether
it's possible and how to go about it, I'd be grateful.

Thanks.
Daniel.

Daniel,

You will want to take a look at the section "MMC Reference" in MSDN,
located at (watch for line wrap):

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de..._reference.asp

This is a reference to the COM interfaces, structures, and enumerations
that you will need to create a snap-in. There is no .NET representation of
this, so you will have to use COM interop to access this functionality.

Hope this helps.
