AddRemovePrograms column referenced in place of Win32Reg_AddRemovePrograms
On page 165, step 5 of the lab instructions reads:



"Set colItems equal to what comes back from issuing the WQL statement “Select * from AddRemovePrograms” as you use the execQuery method. Your code will look like the following:

Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery(“SELECT * FROM AddRemovePrograms”)"



It should read:



"Set colItems equal to what comes back from issuing the WQL statement “Select * from Win32Reg_AddRemovePrograms” as you use the execQuery method. Your code will look like the following:

Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery(“SELECT * FROM Win32Reg_AddRemovePrograms”)"
