Do you mean?
Code: Select all
MsgInfo( DISKNAME() )
MsgInfo( CURDIR() )
MsgInfo( DISKNAME() + ":\" + CURDIR() )

HI Cristobal
I think that code requires you to input the location and it returns the longitude and latitude - I would like the
location - like a mobile phone displays its current location on a map.
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Colin

There are ways to interrogate your machines IP Domain host Address issued by the Internet Service provider .. Here is a website that can give you your lat long based on your IP ..

As far a cell location, I believe that is triangulated based on the proximity of the cell towers or a GPS chip in the device.
