The problem with this is that OP doesn't mention why he doesn't want to use
SQLDMO, now using ODBC he needs to PInvoke 4 API's, while a simple PInvoke
of a single Win32 API "NetServerEnum" could be used to get all SQL servers
in the network without any dependency at all.

Good information... I provided an answer - and the only one I knew at the
time - never said it was the best answer! :)
