Mark,
I found a freeware OCX (on CompuServe) that will return all the MAC addresses found on a given machine. Because I'm not the creator and he didn't respond to my emails, I don't feel I can post it (all I had was "The Fayette Co Clerk ... M Overstreet"). On the other hand, I'd be willing to send it to you with the code I'm using to make it work if you want it.

>I have run this code multiple times on a Dell 8100 Inspiron, Win2k machine, and I get a totally different return value every time. I have found absolutely nothing that can consistently return the correct MAC address of the primary adapter.
