Dim szUUID
Dim szMac

Set NetworkAdapterSet = GetObject("winmgmts:").InstancesOf ("Win32_NetworkAdapter")

iMACCount = 0

For Each NetworkAdapter In NetworkAdapterSet

If NetworkAdapter.AdapterType = "Ethernet 802.3" Then

szAdapterDescription = NetworkAdapter.Description

if NetworkAdapter.Description <> "Packet Scheduler Miniport" Then
szMAC = NetworkAdapter.MACAddress
szUUID = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-"&Replace(szMAC, ":", "")

InputBox "Based on the network adapter with the description """ & _
szAdapterDescription & """, your system's UUID would " & _
"be " & szUUID & ". This UUID has been placed in the " & _
"text area below for your convenience." , _<BR/>
"Not WFM Capable", szUUID
End If
End If
iMACCount = iMACCount + 1
Next

hi -

If U are still having problems - could the following be adapted? (they only get return 1 mac address but maybe could be changed in some way - dunno...)

http://www.mvps.org/vbnet/index.html...macaddress.htm

(or even

http://www.mvps.org/vbnet/index.html...ressremote.htm )

(there is some very good example code on that site)

cheers, A.J.P
