[dba-Tech] Looking at another computer

If you have admin privileges on the other machine,  we discussed this the other day on 
Access D where Darren wanted to check whether a specific applicationwas running on a 
server from inside Access.

Here's a modification of that code which wll list all running processes on another machine.

Function ProcessesRunning(strServer As String) As Boolean
Dim Process As Object
Dim strObject As String
strObject = "winmgmts://" & strServer
For Each Process In GetObject(strObject).InstancesOf("win32_process")
Debug.Print Process.Name
Next
End Function
