Carl,

Why do you need the users to change the name of their computers?

If it's because of some code you've written you need to rethink the design to make your code work with the way the user has configured their machine.

>is there another way other than that stated in "RE: Ipconfig? Ipaddress, subnet & Def' Gateway" to retreve the computer name and again how would I change it without asking my customers to right click on "My Computer", "Computer name" etc etc I also needed it to apply to windows 95, 98, ME, 2K and XP.... Any ideas any one ?
