Hi,

Thanks for the information, but I was looking for something that could look at the original files and extract the information from them. The files are installers and the installer software puts the information in them. We did use DM in our old site and we hand-entered version numbers, but that was a very large effort and we would like to not just “get by”.

Ideally, we would like all the other information as well that is already stored in the installer .exe file and can be seen through the file’s properties page.

I know there is a WMI API that allows programmers to get to this information and a command that allows you to get to the information. For example,

wmic datafile where Name="E:\\FILES\\ProductDownloads\\blah.exe" get Description,Path,Status,Version,Size,Manufacturer,CreationDate

gives you formatted output. I was wondering if anyone might have something that would give results more inline with what DM requires. I am looking to avoid doing lots of work 350 times (or more). (Creating a CSV file involves doing a lot of work 350 times or more).

Thanks
Rob

It ended up that I needed to buy the PRO version, then the access control module, install them in that order.  I am going now.  Thanks.

I did (as I mentioned in my first email).

Thanks,
Rob
