Hi All

Is there away for a fivewin application to know the location of the device the application is running on.


Cheers

Colin:

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

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.
