Return the MAC Address.?
Is this AD only, or does it use WMI.?

I would be happy to test for you.

all WMI, no AD

the WOL will have a number of dependencies... but I may just settle for using SMS and pre-generated ini file

No code yet, only form... But most of the code is in other apps I already have

OK, fair enough

The form looks good, however...

Does the "MS Office" section need to be that big.?
There's only about < 10 apps.

What would be in the "Windows" and "Hardware" Sections.?

What if you put the major sections Hardware, Tools, Office, etc. each in its own tab?

minor changes to form (pic updated in post 1)

I though about tabs, but there is little enough info in the given space, certainly not on it's own tab.

the Windows section will have IE and windows hotfixes

I will probably change all the 'update' buttons into toolbuttons with the little green refresh icon. I'm also considering putting a progressbar beside each update button.

the Target box will get compressed, and that column will be moved up at make room for another button or 2 in the Tools Section.

right now I'm trying to make the logic and functionality of TARGET and TARGET DETAILS 'bulletproof' and control the 'enabling' of the other sections.

Keep the ideas coming...

Batch mode!

Load a list of PC's, or a subnet scan for that matter, and specify hotfixes etc to apply.

UDFs should be single purpose

1 to get the MAC
another to check the status (ping)
another to see if someone is logged on

Looking really nice I think Perhaps a tab for AV software? McAfee and NAV CE?

Rad, I definetly don't think one should stare blindly to UDF's doing "one single thing", the vast majority of the UDF's here does more... even if I agree that they should be limited to a narrow "topic"

Missing connect option using an IP add insted of User or Computer name.
Search option for IP range - ex 192.168.0.0/24 or 192.168.0.48-156 could be an issue for nex release...
Well done

you probably have an old version of Kixforms.dll

I suppose that I should put in a dll version check...

you can use an ip instead of name...
