    I am trying to write a comp info gui tool..

    input is richtextbox1....which can accept multiple hostnames

    Button to run the function compinfo.

    output is richtextbox2.

    I want to use the same Object for all the servers and property only should change.
    Note :The display should be in richtextbox2

    ex:

    servername  domain model
    host1           abc       xx
    host2           dav       Xy

    Currently its showing as

    servername  domain model
    host1           abc       xx
    servername  domain model
    host1           dav       Xy
    ==================== function what i am using is below====

    Function CompInfo {
    $s = $s = $richtextbox1.text.split("`n")

    foreach ($sv in $s){
    $info = Get-WmiObject win32_computersystem -computername $sv | Format-Table @{Name="Server Name";Expression={"{0:N1}" -f($_.Caption)}},Domain,Model,Systemtype,@{Name="Physical Memory(GB)";Expression={"{0:N1}" -f($_.totalphysicalmemory/1gb)}} | out-string

     ForEach-Object in $info {
          $richtextbox2.Appendtext("{0}`n" -f $dis)
        
      }
     }

    Hi Jrv,

    Thanks that works.

    For the samething if i want the diskspace for multiple computers i am getting an error.

    Its working good for single computer..But if iam entering multiple hostnames...its throwing rpc error.

    Get-WmiObject : The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA)
    At C:\Users\Yasi\Desktop\dev.ps1:17 char:26
    +     $disk = Get-WmiObject <<<<  win32_logicaldisk -computername $servers |
        + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (:) [Get-WmiObject], COMException
        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : GetWMICOMException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetWmiObjectCommand

    =========

    Function Disk {
    $richTextBox2.Text = $richTextBox2.Text.Clear
    $servers=$richTextbox1.Text.split("'n")


        $disk = Get-WmiObject win32_logicaldisk -computername $server -filter "$drivetype=3" |
              Format-table @{Name="Server Name";Expression={"{0:N1}" -f ($_.SystemName)}},DeviceID,VolumeName,@{Name="Size(GB)";Expression={"{0:N1}" -f($_.size/1gb)}},@{Name="FreeSpace(GB)";Expression={"{0:N1}" -f($_.freespace/1gb)}}  -autosize | Out-String
    $richtextbox2.Appendtext($disk)
     }

    That is not a scripting issue.  You need to fix your WMI.

    That is not possible.  You cannot get that error from a bad variable.  It can only come from accessing a machine with no WMI or faulty WMI.

    so what is wrong with that.  It is a name that does not exist.  I don't see where this has anything to do with variables or scripting.

    An old rule of the computer trade is "garbage in - garbage out"
