Hi All !

I just copied the sample from the SDK to enum the properties of the 
"Win32_OperatingSystem" class, but got the error in subject:

Unhandled Exception: System.Management.ManagementException: Not found

This happens on a x64 computer

Windows Server 2003 R3, x64 Edition, SP2, en, fully patched
..Net Framework 1.1, all SPs
So, this runs a win32 process.

This is surely a bug, the enumeration returns this property!
A code-excerpt is:

foreach (PropertyData property in properties)
{
	Console.WriteLine("Description: " + 				
		property.Qualifiers["Description"].Value); //BOMB
	...
}

As I mentioned, it's from the SDK ;-)

Each help is very welcomed!

Thanks so far and
best regards,
mabra

Not familiar witth WMI but I would try rather something like :

MyObject.Properties["Description"].Value

My general approach for this is to start by enumerating all as it looks you 
are looking fro something that is not there...

Hi !

No, but thanks. I first enumerate the properties and WMI return 
that!!!!!! But if I try to access the value, it bombs.
