scripting mmc actions

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi folks,

Is there a way to script mmc actions? I've written a little hta that takes a
user ID as input, then queries our SMS database, retrieves all of the
computers that user has logged into recently, then creates buttons that
allow me to start a remote control session and/or display that computer's
latest inventory report. I'd like to add another function that starts up an
mmc with the computer management snapin set to the remote computer, so I can
easily look at things like event logs and group memberships for that
computer. So, basically, I want to use vbscript to launch the mmc with the
computer management snapin and pass it the remote computer name in a
variable. Thoughts?

Thanks,
Mike
