thanks Remy, thanks Vladimir for your help.

I was wondering why the CoInitializeEx call fails even when I place my
component on a blank project. After looking at the pascal files that you
mentioned it seems like the VCL initializes COM whenever I include one
of the COM headers. The pascal initialization blocks seem to be
executed when Application->Initialize is called.
I tried setting the CoInitFlags in the test projects WinMain before this
call
and the error is gone.

The problem is, however, that I'm writing a component and I think that
I don't have access to the users WinMain. So I think that the only option
is to tell the user that he need initialize COM for multi-threading himself.

Thanks Vladimir for your WMI code. I will definitely come back and ask
here because of compatibility issues with WMI...

thanks again,
Nick
