System information via vb.net????????? ??????????????? ???????

How can I get the System Information via vb.net? At a minimum, I need
that data supplied in Start|All Programs|Access ories|System
Tools|System Information and, preferably the Office Applications
subheader.

Thanks in advance,

Hi Cor,

I believe you that it's a great namespace, but I don't have it! When I try
imports system. management is not a class in the namespace!

Hi Bernie,

It is a great namespace, you can get almost everything about a computer and the OS you never know before.

With this sample you get a disk serial number I think this sample is from
Ken (his style). However the possibilties are endless (do not forget to look at the link I pasted bellow).

\\\
Imports System.Manageme nt
.
Dim disk As New ManagementObjec t("Win32_Logica lDisk.DeviceID= ""C:""")
Dim diskProperty As PropertyData
For Each diskProperty In disk.Properties
Console.WriteLi ne("{0} = {1}", diskProperty.Na me, diskProperty.Va lue)
Next diskProperty
///

And see this link, than you see it even more I think.

Success

Glenn:

When you say "Note: requires a reference to the System.Manageme nt
assembly" , what exactly does that mean?

Thanks,

John

Go to the referances section of you project and sellect add referance, then add the system.manageme nt.dll, this will allow you to use WMI

Hi Oops,

Sorry Bernie, I thought you know this or is there something else wrong.

You have to set a reference to System.Manageme nt for it.

Hi! How can I get information about the system my application is running on?

Is there a way to get a user-understandable string like...

The problems seems to be that when the SMTPClient attaches to the server and the server sends it greeting message, if anything other than +OK is received by the client it throws an exception and falls over.
