I need to know if there is a way to determine the amount of RAM that a
person has on their workstation from a web application. We are using
BrowserHawk to mine HTTP information but I also need to know amount of RAM.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

I don't believe so, as it's not something comes which across in the request
headers, as you already know...
If this is a closed intranet and all the clients use IE, then you could
write an ActiveX control which used WMI to determine this. Piece of cake in
itself, but you'd have to seriously ramp down your security to get it to
work...
If it's on the public Internet, though, I'd say you have virtually no chance
at all...

Hello Michael ,

There is no standard way, except you introduce an activeX control in your

It is for a business requirement to determine the right level of software to
ship to our customers. I think this is going to be a can of worms as I
cannot be ascertain of the platform, OS or Browser being used in the initial
transaction.
Thanks for the reply. I may just have to recommend that we ask them for
this info.

INTRO
The phrase "decimal number" within a programming context is ambiguous. It could
refer to the decimal datatype or the related but separate concept of a generic
decimal number. "Decimal Number" sometimes serves to distinguish Base 10
numbers, eg "15", from Base 2 numbers, Eg "1111". At other times "Decimal
Number" serves to differentiate a number from an integer. For the rest of this
post I shall only use either...

Hi there,
Does anyone know how to (generically) determine the currently active form for an application using a "static" function (so I can call it from anywhere). There is no offiical way I've been able to find so I've written the following for starters:
public static Form GetActiveForm()

// Returns null for an MDI app
Form activeForm = Form.ActiveForm;
