Hi Dave and Chip,
This is the standard format for a WMI inside a VBScript. If you have
Power Shell then the format goes down to a single line command.
Do more search on this to get more properties detail on it.

For Each objItem in colItems

Subject: RE: ap for changing soundcards
Hi Dave,
I looked at this, or something like it, in the past and decided I couldn't
do it. It might be possible to use WMI to do this, but I didn't know WMI
well enough.
If you aren't using VBScript, but you're using some language with access to
all the Windows APIs, then you've probably got all you need to do it at that
point, and you can forget WMI; but WMI was the only way I saw for VBScript
to do it.
Hth,
Chip
