Soryr, I probably misstated my question, I want to search wmi properties.
Example, I want to find which WMI I need to load to get the last logged on user.

Well, that particular detail should be stored in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\WinLogon\DefaultUserName

As for which win32 wmi class to load for specific tasks, there is so-so documentation on MSDN

No real answer here.  I wanted a way to search the properties, but I will try the web pages.
Scripting Languages
Scripting Languages

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
