I am reading IP address by using

loSock = CREATEOBJECT('MSWinsock.Winsock.1')
cIP = loSock.LocalIP


But I have found out that the ocx is not installed by default on all Window systems. I found

mswinsck.ocx dated 12/06/2000
MSWINSCK.DEP dated 07/19/1997

in my c:\windows\system32\ folder.

What is the best way to distribute this ?
Is it a Windows or a FoxPro component ?

Can I just copy these two files to the \system32 folder on another system?

or does it have to be registered or installed, or otherwise added as a COMPONENT when adding stuff to the InstallShield Modules ?

Thanks for your help.
