Hello,

I need the Computer name during the installation and I was reading that an API function with the the name "GetComputerName" exist in the kernel32.dll.

BUT how I can use that function? What I have to define that I can use it?

Thank you forward for help..

prototype POINTER wsock32.gethostname(BYREF STRING, NUMBER);
STRING szHostName;

UseDLL ("wsock32.dll");
pWinSockReturn = gethostname(szHostName,100);

Then , u can retrieve Hostname from variable pWinSockReturn !

good luck
