How do I run the following WMI query, both programmatically to and as a one-shot deal? Can I use Visual Studio 2008, and if so what language and type of project do I setup? I’m a complete beginner at this so please provide details. Thanks!

SELECT * FROM Win32_USBControllerDevice For Each as USBDevice    ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_PnPEntity.DeviceID='<USBDevice.Dependent>'}     WHERE ResultClass = Win32_DiskDrive    For Each as Drive       ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_DiskDrive.DeviceID='<Drive.DeviceID>'}         WHERE AssocClass = Win32_DiskDriveToDiskPartition       For Each as Drive2Part          ASSOCIATORS OF {Win32_DiskPartition.DeviceID='<Drive2Part.DeviceID>'}            WHERE AssocClass = Win32_LogicalDiskToPartition          For Each as Disk2Part             Win32_LogicalDisk = <Disk2Part.Dependent>          End For       End For          End For End For
