I need to resolve the ip address from a domain name using visual basic 6.0. I am not very familiar with the using of visual basic library, the ping function in vbInternet class of the activeX library and GetIpFromHostName function of vbInternet in the activeX DLL in visual basic. Can someone guide me with a step-by-step using of the above functions?(eg. what library to load because i cannot find the function anywhere, how to load it out and the source of the library as i do not know whether it is a built-in library or one which had been written by someone else) Thanks.
