Hi again,
I tried 'GetVolumeSerialNumber', but it returns '0' all the time
(different volumes).
And I suspect, that this would be the number that is assigned when a
drive is formatted, not the hardware serial number, which I am looking for.
To be more specific: I need to identify a user of my program using a
password and a hardware-key; I played with HASP and Rockey-dongles, but
the 'company' I am developing the software for has a couple of thousend
1GB-USB-memory-sticks laying around. So if I could use some of those as
one key to identify users they (not for profit organisation) could save
a lot of money...that is why I am trying to find the
USB-hardware-serialnumber.
Btw: Mac OS X shows this number as 'USB serial number' and it is unique.
Also under Windows using the computer-administration disk utility it
shows this number. So it must be somehow available.
But: thanks again, I will keep trying/looking.
chris
