Hi Tim,
Thanks to your help, here's what I'm using to record interesting
information about our workstation inventory. It works great!
c = wmi.WMI().Win32_ComputerSystem
computer = c()[0]
for propertyName in sorted( list( c.properties ) ):
print '%s = %s' % ( propertyName, getattr( computer,
propertyName, '' ) )
For those searching the archives, the same technique can be used to
capture BIOS info as well using the following replacement line.
c = wmi.WMI().Win32_BIOS
Thank you very much for your help and for all your Win32
contributions!!!
Cheers,
Malcolm

Assuming I understand the question, a quickie shortcut is
just to "print" the object:
<code>
import wmi
c = wmi.WMI ()
for s in c.Win32_ComputerSystem ():
print s
</code>
but in fact each object also holds a list of its own properties:
<code>
import wmi
c = wmi.WMI ()
print list (c.Win32_ComputerSystem.properties)
print list (c.Win32_ComputerSystem.methods)
or you can do the same with an instance:
for s in c.Win32_ComputerSystem ():
print list (s.properties)
</code>
