    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...

    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

    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.
