Hello,<br />
<br />
<br />
I am writing a script in WQL (WMI for SQL) and I need to first connect to a machine running SQL and then specify the database to use. Of course, I can use the &quot;USE&quot; command to specify database to use but I am having an issue knowing which statement(s) I need to sue to establish the actual connection to the SQL DB instance name. Since the WQL query will be run locally on the machine the same SQL box, I am not sure if I need to specify credentials in the connection attempt but if that option is available, I would be interested in this as well. <br />
Any help is appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thank You<br />
