Get IP address of a given host?

[LondonNDIB]

I have an app that I'm trying to automate that needs to be fed an ip address.... not a domain name. I can hard-code the IP but sooner or later the IP is going to change. So I set up a no-ip.org address for the computer. But like I said, i need the IP.

I was really hoping there was a built-in or user-defined function available that would let me do something like:

$ip = Host2Ip ( "www.disneyland.com" )

or something like that.

Anyone know of anyway I can achieve this? Thanks.

TCPStartup()

$ip = TCPNameToIP("www.disneyland.com")

MsgBox(64, "", $ip)

thanks!

I did see that in the help, but thought it was for local network computers.

There's basically no info on the TCPStartup function at all... what is that doing? Is that opening up any security problems??

Edit:

Glad I posted this... never saw the logic issue I had.
