List, I created a utility that some may find useful. Thanks to Matt for letting me host it on his site. http://www.mattreinfeldt.com/site/component/option,com_docman/task,cat_v iew/gid,41/Itemid,28/ <http://www.mattreinfeldt.com/site/component/option,com_docman/task,cat_ view/gid,41/Itemid,28/>
It returns workstation information from within the Windows User Tool. The utility and workflow demonstrate: - How to get an executable (or any file) to a user's temp folder. - How to obtain the user's environment variables. - How to run an executable and capture its output. - How to parse the output of an executable. The following information is returned and made available to your workflow: Host Name DNS Host Name IP Address MAC Address NIC Name Subnet Mask Default Gateway DNS Servers User Name Temp Folder CompSpec DNS Domain Name Login Server Excel Path Outlook Path Word Path IE Path Dameware Path VB.Net 2003 (source included) Tested with ARS 6.3 and 7.0. BTW, there is a free open-source IDE for VB.Net and C# programming - SharpDevelop http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sd/ <http://www.icsharpcode.net/opensource/sd/> . I tested the .Net code with SharpDevelop version 2.1.0.2376 RC1 and it compiled and ran without having to change anything. This may be useful if you don't have Visual Studio.
