Replacement for ExplorerOM in 64 bit

 Hi ,

We have used the ExplorerOM  to get receive locations from BizTalk Database in our application. But when we run it on 64 bit , we have identified this is not support as ExplorerOM is not supported in 64 bit.

So we thought to use the MSBTS_ReceiveLocation WMI API . The MSDN says we need to install certificate on BizTalk host to work with this class. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa561991.aspx

We have written a small application like in the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa547936.aspx  & it is working fine in 64 bit environment without having certificates . (BizTalk 2006 r2)

So we have applied it in to our application & it’s working without asking any cerficates. Please note that  our BizTalk 2006 r2 environment does not use any certificates.

Is anyone noticed this ? Any reasons to work this without having certificate in the BizTalk host?  Is this MSDN Link is not applied for BizTalk 2006 r2 ?

Your feedback highly appreciated

Best regards,
