All Forums >> [Scripting] >> WSH & Client Side VBScript >> WMI collection in a For-Next loop Do you like VisualBasicScript.com? Link to us and help spread the word about our forum. Thanks!
I've got the code below running but I'd like to use a For-Next loop instead of a For-Each loop and iterate through the collection in a row-wise fashion based on the value of the variable specified in the For-Next.
It would be boring and tedious for me to explain why I don't want to use a For-Each loop, but trust me, I NEED to use a For-Next. The reason has nothing to do with not having to manage the counter inside the For-Each. Can anybody tell me how to refer to the members of the collection by number? Something like this would be great but it doesn't work.
Unfortunately the files collection hasn't got an index property. In order to accomplish what you want to do, you'll have to put each file of the files collection in an array (with a for each loop) and then use a for next loop to iterate through the array.
OK, here's where the tedious part comes in. I'm doing this work in an environment which uses a dialect of VB (called SQABasic). That dialect is quite dated and doesn't support For-Each. It can, however, do everything else I need (like working with ADO recordsets). I guess at this point I'm just outa' luck, huh?
I would have thought that an index property would be common to all collections. Where can I find a reference that will tell me the full set of properties and methods that are available for WMI collections?
