New-Object for Data Collection ?

This is an example I use in our Advanced training course which does more or less what you're looking for. You can see at the end that it uses the Get-DriveInventory output - which are objects - in three different ways, which is the whole reason to spew objects rather than text. I created a second fu...

connecting to Informix db

connecting to Informix db

http://connectionstrings.com/?carrier=informix has some example connection strings - looks like you've got that bit correct which is usually the issue.

Runoce Registry key

If the user needs admin rights to perform the task, then they need admin rights to run the script. Unfortunately, a script isn't designed to bypass Windows' security.

computer asset inventory

The win32Reg_AddRemovePrograms class comes from installing SMS Server 2003 onto that computer. It provides different results than Win32_Product. The actual syntax you use (-class or -query) doesn't matter.
