Set wsh = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set wshExec = wsh.Exec("ipconfig /all")
Set objStdOut = wshExec.StdOut

Do Until objStdOut.AtEndOfStream
strLine = objStdOut.ReadLine
If InStr(strLine, "Ethernet") 0 Then
bEther = True
End If

If InStr(strLine, "Physical Address") 0 And bEther Then

the below formula is great but is it possable to enter the MAC address in to a cell (eg A1 Sheet1) instead of a message box
