Computer identification using Excel VB
Hi
I would like to setup a macro within Excel that checks which computer is using a particular Excel Doc. I know of the Excel VBA command: Application.UserName and the more complex VB codes to recall the NT network name and computer name. However these could be changed relatively easily for stand alone computers. Is there a command that gets the computer's "Hard Disc Serial Number" or any other unique reference number that identifies the particular computer ? I use Excel 2003, and I am trying to find a way of limiting the use of a particular Excel Doc to certain users. Many thanks for your input and comments David Hall |
