Do you mean that you need to take your DNS info (a number?) and convert it into text or something like that? Doesn't sound right, though...

no i dont want to convert it ( i need to take the DNS number and put it in a TEXT FIELD when the project loads !

For that you would use functions located in system.net.dns

here is an example that would get the ipaddress:

Dim ipaddress As System.Net.IPHostEntry = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(System.Net.Dns.GetHost)

This passes your computers name to a function that returns an array of your ipaddress
then convert the array into a string and place it into the textbox

does this help? For more info google should get you what you need :)

What do you mean by the DNS?

lol...and converting it into text is different from putting it into a text field? For the sake of answering a question, the difference is non-existant.
