Create a New Project.

Spoiler:

Add one button and two text box's.

Spoiler:

Double click button1 and add this code.

PHP Code:

Dim hostname As IPHostEntry = Dns.GetHostByName(TextBox1.Text) 'this makes the program know that textbox 1 is the hostname
        Dim ip As IPAddress() = hostname.AddressList 'This Grabs the ip address from the host
        TextBox2.Text = ip(0).ToString() 'This displays the ip address in Textbox 2 


That is it, debug and test it, i am using visual studio 2010.

Nice! The only way to make this better is if you can explain the code,

Dim hostname As IPHostEntry = Dns.GetHostByName(TextBox1.Text) this makes the program know that textbox 1 is the hostname ( website )

Dim ip As IPAddress() = hostname.AddressList This Grabs the ip address from the host

TextBox2.Text = ip(0).ToString() This displays the ip address in Textbox 2

Anyway AWESOME thread

I didin't know how to explain the code, the way my friend taught me was telling me it executes a server ping and grabs the ip, i do not know if he was correct.
I am not great at coding, i'm trying to learn.

Sorry =/

Mind if i add your explanation to the original post?

I might add this to a multi-tool i'm working on.

[YP.]

I almost understood everything
But what program do you use to make a "new project"?
Ich bin ein big god damn noob.

[Nefarious]

You use visual basic 2010 and up.
I dont think this works in 2008

[YP.]

does visual 2012 work?
just wondering

[Nefarious]

As far as I know it should work.

[YP.]

uhm, i dont even know how to save it so i can load it..
When i saved it and opened it went back to the visual 2010 program.
Ich bin ein nub.

Debug it then build it then click save all go into the folder and run the exe
