Martin, thank you for providing the full output; that is a huge help. I fixed the date formatting while updating an existing record but not when inserting a new record.
Try this file and let us know how it goes.

after some time 1.6.1 sill gave me a date format error, i was a bit too fast to say that all problems were solved, however 1.6.2beta seems to have processed already more then 100 PCs without problems at the moment. So for me the problems seems to be gone

Thanks for letting me know that it isn't quite right. I completely rewrote the date handling to
hopefully
work with different date formats better. Can you please try out this version and let me know?
Thanks.

Hi
This works so well, thank you for all of the effort!
Would you be able to do the same for IBM/Lenovo and HP?
I have sample data etc for you if you need data to test with.

I wondered when this was going to happen.
If you could give me a sample URL for both IBM and HP I can look at the amount of work involved. Would you be willing to beta test? I have no IBM or HP machines.

Is there a way to show purchase and warranty end date on the action screen?
I ran the tool and it seemed to work without an error. I tried to create an report but fail getting the information from the db.
Can anyone help me in getting a report?
cheers

Sure, i used this for Dell Workstations:
Code:
Select tblComputers.Computername, tblCompCustom.Warrantydate, tblCompCustom.PurchaseDate, tblComputersystem.Manufacturer, tblComputersystem.Model From tblComputers Inner Join tblCompCustom On tblComputers.Computername = tblCompCustom.Computername Inner Join tblComputersystem On tblComputers.Computername = tblComputersystem.Computername Where tblCompCustom.Warrantydate <= Convert(DateTime,Convert(VarChar(10),GetDate(),120),120) And tblComputersystem.Model Not Like 'Power%'
and this one for the servers:
Code:
Select tblComputers.Computername, tblCompCustom.Warrantydate, tblCompCustom.PurchaseDate, tblComputersystem.Manufacturer, tblComputersystem.Model From tblComputers Inner Join tblCompCustom On tblComputers.Computername = tblCompCustom.Computername Inner Join tblComputersystem On tblComputers.Computername = tblComputersystem.Computername Where tblCompCustom.Warrantydate <= Convert(DateTime,Convert(VarChar(10),GetDate(),120),120) And tblComputersystem.Model Like 'Power%'
The report shows you all devices that have no longer Dell Support.

I'm not sure if anyone gave Corbett the HP information, but our HP serial numbers also require a part number. I cannot find anyway to get the part number from WMI, registry etc. The only way I know of is physically looking at the number on the computer/server. Our provider is HP so this would be very helpful. Thanks,

Sorry, I never received any links to an HP system's warranty information. With this new information it sounds like it's going to be quite difficult to get the warranty information automatically from their web site.

On a few HP desktop and notebook models the part number can be found in the Model property of the Win32_ComputerSystem class:
HP Compaq 6710b (GR680ET#ABH)
HP Compaq nx8220 (PY516ET#ABH)
HP dx2000 MT(PE205ET)
Unfortunately, these are the only ones I've been able to find.

I found the HP part number in the BIOS under the heading SKU Number. I also found this script below to pull it through WMI, however, when I look at the SKU Number in WMI CIM Studio its blank. The script pulls back a blank SKU number also. Maybe, it will make sense to someone and they can figure it out. Thanks,
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_ComputerSystemProduct",,48)
For Each objItem in colItems
Wscript.Echo "Caption: " & objItem.Caption
Wscript.Echo "Description: " & objItem.Description
Wscript.Echo "IdentifyingNumber: " & objItem.IdentifyingNumber
Wscript.Echo "Name: " & objItem.Name
Wscript.Echo "SKUNumber: " & objItem.SKUNumber
Wscript.Echo "UUID: " & objItem.UUID
Wscript.Echo "Vendor: " & objItem.Vendor
Wscript.Echo "Version: " & objItem.Version
