>Open the registry using regedit to find the key for the ip address. Then use the registry.prg that ships with VFP or get the one from Rick Strahl's WWW.west-wind.com and locate that key.

This information may not be stored in the registry depending on the network setup. Many networks assign IP addresses at logon, and most set IP from a login script.
