Script: getting user computer's ID number

[SGW]

Hi,

Is there a way to script a button so that when clicked, it can display the user's computer's hardware ID? I have experimented with MSI.GetUserInfo (Serial Number) but no success in getting the computer ID to display.

Any help would be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

Not sure how to edit posts, so added this to last post:

I found what I think is an applicable link on this forum, but cannot get the suggestions to work:

I placed the function code (bigger code item ) into the global functions for the project, placed the function call (smaller code item) into a button. Have added and checked luacom plugin. When I click on the button, the computer ID does not display. Nothing displays. I'm wondering if I have to create some form of display/message box with a variable for the return in it? (Not sure how to do this, if needed.)

Any help appreciated.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

OK. I think I figured it out with a message box:


Dialog.Message("The value is:", var);

The return is the hard disk's name (like Samsung) and an ID number. The ID number has a long bar (_________)between the first and second set of characters. Not sure what this is?

Kind Regards,
