Finding local machine name?

[Robin Tucker]

Hi,

I would like to know the name of the local machine. At present I can use
"(local)" for setting up database connections, but I would like a quick way
of knowing that (local) = "RTUCKER" (for instance). I can't find a machine
name on the application object, but I'm sure its probably easily accessable
from somewhere.

Thanks,
Robin
