Unable to Create Collection/Query On Custom Created Data (WMI/MOF)

We're trying to get some custom information into SMS. To do this we've
created a vbScript that collects the data & pulls it into the registry.
From there we created a .mof file that adds the data into WMI. From
there a HW Inventory brings the data into SMS.

Using SQL QA, I can see that the data has been pulled into SMS. It
created a VAT_DATA & VAT_HIST user table with columns like MachineID,
InstanceKey, etc. and columns that we've defined with two 00s after the
name (like Building00, Location00, and KeyName00). A view is also
created call v_GS_VAT0 with a ResourceID, and our column names with a
single 0 after the name (Building0, Location0, KeyName0). We're able to
create SMS reports on this view & up until that point all was well.

However now we'd like to create collections based on this data. When I
create a collection, it tells me that we don't have security rights to
perform this operation. When I attempt to make a query, I get a
WBEM_E_FAILED error.

Can anyone help/offer a solution?

Thanks,
Mike
