Hi Art,
I picked up an open source class for creating UUID's (see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UUID) in RB (Can't remember where) which is
cross platform.
Email me if you'd like a copy.

Subject: Unique Win Computer ID
All,
First, losing the List is really going to hurt me.
My question: Can anyone suggest a way or have a code snippet to obtain a
(relatively) unique identification of a Windows machine? I have tried
wading through msdn stuff but it is way over my head.
I am looking for some information that will remain relatively consistent
and apply to the physical computer. One suggestion was to look at several
environment variables and match at least two of them to those of the
originally licensed machine.
My problem is that I could not find a list of the env variable names -
and have never applied declares - and don't have any idea of the returned
data structure. (Although, I believe I can master declares after
obtaining Charles' book.)
Does the RB system.environment class access Windows machines? Would this
be a good place to start?
Thanks,
Art
