Determine Laptop or Destop System Enclosure
Had a need to determine if a machine is a laptop or not. This can be used to grab the enclosure type of a machine from WMI. List included. It could be improved by reading the entire "ChassisTypes" array, but seems to work fine for my immediate needs.
Locator = ObjectOpen("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
Service = Locator.ConnectServer()
Security = Service.Security_
Security.ImpersonationLevel = 3
EnclosureSet = Service.InstancesOf("Win32_SystemEnclosure")
Enum = ObjectCollectionOpen(EnclosureSet)
While 1
Enclosure = ObjectCollectionNext(Enum)
If Enclosure == 0 Then Break
ChassisType=(Enclosure.ChassisTypes(0)) ;just grabbing the first value in the array
ObjectClose(Enclosure)
EndWhile
ObjectCollectionClose(Enum)
ObjectClose(EnclosureSet)
If ChassisType==8 || ChassisType==9 || ChassisType==10
Message(ChassisType,"Is a Laptop")
Else
Message(ChassisType,"Is not a Laptop")
EndIf
