    Class Runspace03

        ''' <summary>
        ''' This sample uses the RunspaceInvoke class to execute
        ''' a script that retrieves process information for the
        ''' list of process names passed into the script.
        ''' It shows how to pass input objects to a script and
        ''' how to retrieve error objects as well as the output objects.
        ''' </summary>
        ''' <param name="args">Unused</param>
        ''' <remarks>
        ''' This sample demonstrates the following:
        ''' 1. Creating an instance of the RunspaceInvoke class.
        ''' 2. Using this instance to execute a string as a PowerShell script.
        ''' 3. Passing input objects to the script from the calling program.
        ''' 4. Using PSObject to extract and display properties from the objects
        '''    returned by this command.
        ''' 5. Retrieving and displaying error records that were generated
        '''    during the execution of that script.
        ''' </remarks>
