programatically get a PC's IP address

[lmd2]

is there some property node or system query that would return a string of the host PC's IP Address?

Hello Lawrence,

There are a few ways to do this, but the simplest is probably something like this:

Community Example: Find out your computer's IP Address and Computer Name

This could also be accomplished with System Exec/command prompt  queries, or the Sysconfig API.

thanks, figured there was a function somewhere, finding the right palette could be tough; you've been very helpful.

Glad to help- it's definitely true that finding the right function for the job is half the battle.
