Re: Error in ExecQuery

I believe that the issue that Gerry is referring to was in the following
call

// For example, get the name of the operating system
IEnumWbemClassObject* pEnumerator = NULL;
hres = pSvc->ExecQuery(
bstr_t("WQL"),
bstr_t("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem"),
WBEM_FLAG_FORWARD_ONLY | WBEM_FLAG_RETURN_IMMEDIATELY,
NULL,
&pEnumerator);

The problem was that the WBEM_FLAG_RETURN_IMMEDIATELY which can bypass the
real error in some cases. If you eliminate that particular flag you may get
more information about the failing hres.
