Gettin my DNS in Visual Basic

well am a Beginner and i'm trying to do sumthing..

i need my DNS to be in a TEXT when i load the Project.. i mean when i run it my DNS comes in a TEXT..
hope to get full explination how to do it..

Can you reword your post please? I don't understand what you're talking about

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:

Code:

---

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 :)

i think this also get the IP address but i need to get the DNS

me.winsock1.localip = text1.text sum1 told me that this get the ip <<

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.
