Awesome, I saw that and figured it would be perfect. It really looks
like a neat way of handling that sort of challenge.
Always glad to try and help.

Thanks to Fargo,
I obtained a copy of MachineID and got it converted to an internal RB
function (from VB). It works a treat and the price is right. It looks
like it will do what I need.

All,
First, losing the List is really going to hurt me.
My question: Can anyone suggest a way or have a code snippet to
obtain a (relatively) unique identification of a Windows machine? I
have tried wading through msdn stuff but it is way over my head.
I am looking for some information that will remain relatively
consistent and apply to the physical computer. One suggestion was to
look at several environment variables and match at least two of them
to those of the originally licensed machine.
My problem is that I could not find a list of the env variable names
- and have never applied declares - and don't have any idea of the
returned data structure. (Although, I believe I can master declares
after obtaining Charles' book.)
Does the RB system.environment class access Windows machines? Would
this be a good place to start?
Thanks,
Art
