Eric,
Thanks again for the help. I wound up using sys(0) to id the computer and user and it works great. Now I have another question. When I run the WinSock function on my Win 95 computer it works great. Returns a different IP address each time I log onto my ISP just like I thought it would. When I run it on my Win 98 PC it allways returns the same number. Even when I'm not logged on. Any ideas?


>>Here I go again. In gool old DOS on Novell I could get the P_STATION number, the ethernet card address, using any number of different librarys. We use this to track errors and all kinds of things. How can I get this number in VFP? Is it also possible to get the name the user used to log into the network? Again this was easy in the old days.
