Sub CreateReport(connection,       _
                 newReportName,    _
                 newCategory,      _
                 newSQLQuery)               

    ' Create the new report object. 
    Set newReport = connection.Get("SMS_Report").SpawnInstance_
    
    ' Populate the SMS_Report properties.
    newReport.Name = newReportName
    newReport.Category = newCategory
    newReport.SQLQuery =  newSQLQuery
            
    ' Save the new report and properties.
    newReport.Put_ 
    
    ' Output new report name.
    Wscript.Echo "Created new report: " & newReportName                  
                                    
End Sub

public void CreateReport(WqlConnectionManager connection, 
                         string newReportName, 
                         string newCategory, 
                         string newSQLQuery)
{            
    try
    {
        // Create new report object.
        IResultObject newReport = connection.CreateInstance("SMS_Report");

        // Populate new report properties.
        newReport["Name"].StringValue = newReportName;
        newReport["Category"].StringValue = newCategory;
        newReport["SQLQuery"].StringValue = newSQLQuery;
        
        // Save new report and new report properties.
        newReport.Put();

        // Output new report name.
        Console.WriteLine("Created report" + newReport["Name"].StringValue);
    }
    catch (SmsException ex)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Failed to create report. Error: " + ex.Message);
