notes for build...
When using remote calls, use IPAddress ($IPAddressBox.text) to eliminate name resolition issues... only forseeable issues would be for RAS clients, but computer name would display attached PC name for verification
Textboxes or comboboxes where input or selection is possible are ENABLED all others should be disabled. adjust font color if more contrast is needed
Use $=setoption('OptionExplicit','ON') and $=setoption('NoVarsInStrings','ON')

Radimus,
How about something like this GUI. Looks a little more professional (imho) without all those buttons all over.
If you like this framework then we can expand upon it.
If others have an opinion on which GUI look they prefer please provide your input as well.

Can do that... It would still need the targetPC group somewhere, probabaly outside the tabcontrol, but could work horizontal.
The tool buttons could work as a toolbar... Shawn ever get that in KF or just a series of toolbuttons? The buttons would need to have either mouseover, or text labels, since many of the buttons wouldn't have Icons that made sense... expecially using the builtin icons.
But the other stuff could certainly go on their own tabpages... lemme redesign today and we'll see what we see.

updated again to the sort of look as suggested.
The empty groupbox is a placeholder for the toolbuttons... why oh why will KFD not support toolbuttons... (and Menus)
as for the icons... Your guess (and opinion) is as good as mine, but I'd think some type of icon for "remote control", "c:\", "power" could be a lightbulb or key, some "running" symbol. You already have quite a few built in, but some of the system application icons would be handy, like "AD Users and Computers", "Event Viewer", etc.

I updated again with some toolbuttons random icons
Suggestions for the button icons are welcome. The current button functions would be:
remote control
explore c:
power (logoff, reboot, shutdown)
AD Users & PCs
Event Viewer
Browse Support website (dell, IBM, etc)
Run all queries
Export results
... and any other one-click functions that people think would be useful

sounds good... and mouseover text for extra detail
(updated code again... got userdata working, but needs more logic before it would be considered finished)
