Re: Gathering Workstation IP Address

I began to look at the entries you specify prior to generating my code.
With a large number of workstations to query, I was hoping to keep the
runtime of the code as short as possible. For my minimal skills at
coding, using these keys would have complicated the task for me.

Will look at this again when I get into the office. I remember that the
entries for "Dhcp IP Adress" were not ASCII values. What format are the
values coded in (hex?), and what would the proper conversion code be?

This was such an easy thing to do under Windows NT since the key was
only in one location - plain ASCII and visible :-)
