Can someone tell me how FB^3 can get the machine name when compiled in carbon running in OS X? Staz's following Appletalk Chooser Name example on the disk only works in PPC. DIM cName$,rHndl& LOCAL FN chooserName$ '~' rHndl& = FN GETRESOURCE(_"STR ",49440) LONG IF rHndl& cName$ = PSTR$([rHndl&]) XELSE cName$ = "" END IF END FN = cName$ Thanks, Doug Stemen
