var
  varTWSAData : TWSAData;
  varPHostEnt : PHostEnt;
  varTInAddr : TInAddr;
  namebuf : Array[0..255] of char;
begin
  If WSAStartup($101,varTWSAData) <> 0 Then
  Result := 'No. IP Address'
  Else Begin
    gethostname(namebuf,sizeof(namebuf));
    varPHostEnt := gethostbyname(namebuf);
    varTInAddr.S_addr := u_long(pu_long(varPHostEnt^.h_addr_list^)^);
    Result := 'IP Address: '+inet_ntoa(varTInAddr);
  End;
  WSACleanup;
