local machine name

[trezlub]

How do you get the local machine name into VB?

I need to display the value somehow. Any ideas?

Have you tried using the GetComputerName API?

Good Luck

/me has bad flash backs
"CajunCenturion I don't want to use API's"

Don't ask me why I'm having flash backs...I just find it funny and had to say it.
No reflection on you trezlub.

I think its just senility setting in hard.

I based this on something I found by searching MSDN

Also should appeal to those whose prefer script objects over API's

Dim WshNetwork As Object

Set WshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network&quot
Debug.Print "Domain = " & WshNetwork.UserDomain
Debug.Print "Computer Name = " & WshNetwork.ComputerName
Debug.Print "User Name = " & WshNetwork.UserName
