WMIC in Windows command line

[shankle]

Has anyone used or heard of this Windows feature?
Would like to find out more about it and how it would be useful to me
and for what.

it can do all kinds of things
it may save you from having to write WMI code, which is a bit of a nightmare   :P

i am pretty sure that MSDN has a page for it, as well
try google'ing "msdn wmic"

Thanks Dave for  responding.
Will have to do my homework on this one.
Brand new to me.

I've used it occasionally at work for listing inventory of remote machine such as printers or application list, services.
Because it's using WMI interfaces, I normally access these through VBScript.

WMIC doesn't offer access to every WMI class, but most are available.
Depends on what you need to do.
