Retrieving the computers description

[RudyL]

Does anyone know of a command the will allow me to retrieve the computers description? I know the "getcomputername" command will retrieve the name. Maybe there is something similar for the description.....

Thanks for the help,

What do you mean by "description"?

[RudyL]

In the network settings you give the pc a name and then a description. ie. Name = "Compag Peserio", Description = "Pentium 1.2Ghz" ...

If you want to know the processor type, use this code:

Private Declare Sub GetSystemInfo Lib "kernel32" (lpSystemInfo As SYSTEM_INFO)
Private Type SYSTEM_INFO
        dwOemID As Long
        dwPageSize As Long
        lpMinimumApplicationAddress As Long
        lpMaximumApplicationAddress As Long
        dwActiveProcessorMask As Long
        dwNumberOrfProcessors As Long
        dwProcessorType As Long
        dwAllocationGranularity As Long
        dwReserved As Long
End Type
 
Dim InfoResult As SYSTEM_INFO
GetSystemInfo InfoResult
MsgBox "Your CPU type is " & InfoResult.dwProcessorType
MsgBox "You have " & InfoResult.dwNumberOrfProcessors & " processor(s)"
