How do I make vb2008 find my ip address
Get the hostname then pass the hostname to GetHostByName which provides an AddressList collection. From this collection, you reference the 0 index which is the first IP address representing your PC.

Example culled from search results:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Private Sub GetIPAddress()
  2. Dim strHostName As String
  3. Dim strIPAddress As String
  4.  
  5. strHostName = System.Net.Dns.GetHostName()
  6. strIPAddress = System.Net.Dns.GetHostByName(strHostName).AddressList(0).ToString()
  7.  
  8. MessageBox.Show("Host Name: " & strHostName & "; IP Address: " & strIPAddress)
  9. End Sub
