MMC kix

Has anyone experimented using kix to build MMC snap-ins? I am running into a couple problems with the MMC interfaces.

I have been feeling it out using Microsoft Platform SDK's documentation -- readily available from the MSDN web, but the examples are in C++, and the basic snap-in registration is pretty confusing. Any ideas, or if anyone knows of a site that provides VBS examples building a snap-in would be great. I can't seem to find much.

You might want to download the Visual Basic Snap-In Designer from the Microsoft website.

And remember: If it's COM-able it's KiX-able [Big Grin]

Well the problem with that is I need to have Visual Basic 6.0 installed, or Visual Studio. The Chef = really poor dude.

Briefly reading this article:

Whistler: Build More Flexible Console Snap-ins with the MMC 2.0 Object Model

It would seem that one can Automate MMC2.0 with VBS (or like Jens said - Kixtart) but whether one could actually build a snapin remains to be seen - haven't read the full article but there are VBS examples in there.
