Rejeesh,
Pretty interesting article. I wish I would have seen it when I started digging into the CMI :-)
Anyway, thanks for the link.
Regarding CMI.. Yes, it is undocumented :-(
Some CMI scripts I posted in this NG so you may want to search.
Also, the XPeTools package (www.xpefiles.com) may help you to explore CMI as well.
Regards,
KM
