IP Address

Does anyone know how to display your IP in VB.NET? I got this code from abstractvb but it dosent work :cry:

'Dim h As System.Net.IPHostEntry = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName)
TextBox1.Text(CType(h.AddressList.GetValue(0), IPAddress).ToString)'

But 'IPAddress' (in italics) is underlined blue and says 'Type 'IPAddress' is not defined.' Can someone please help or tell me another way to find my IP using VB.NET?
Thanks

Hi Jonny
One of our staff may be able to help you there, but he is not on board at the moment. No doubt he will pick this up later. :yesnod:

of first you need to import System.Net, System.Net.Sockets

then to go with your code
Dim IPAddress As New IPAddress(Dns.GetHostByName(Dns.GetHostName).AddressList(0).Address)
TextBox1.Text(IPAddress.ToString)
