Hello again,

Both methods advised by Thierry Arbellot and Dar Scott worked... on Win2K
but not on Win98SE.

The result I got for hostAddress on a local computer was...

0.0.0.0

.. when I tried both Thierry Arbellot's...

>      put "255.255.255.255:43222" into testSocket
>      open datagram socket to testSocket
>      put hostAddress(testSocket) into theIPAddress
>      close socket testSocket

.. and Dar Scott's variation of using...

> the IP address of something on the LAN that is fixed"

So I'm back to square one, i.e., how to use Rev to find out a computer's LAN
IP.

Cheers,
