How can I get from the DHCP, A liste
or an access table filled with users'
Computer Name and their Mac Address?
In other words I need to wake on LAN
all the systems that exist in the DHCP.
If you can find the appropriate API to retrieve this information from DHCP,
and if that API is usable from Access VBA (as many are), then it is most
probable that you could store the information in an Access table.
The best place I know for Access-API information is
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/index.html . As far as I can see, there is
only one possibility in that list that may suit part of your requirements.
Otherwise, you should search the Knowledge Base at
http://support.microsoft.com to see if you can find information.
Or, perhaps "Google is your friend" on this one. Sometimes it is surprising
what you'll find at some website. Many who are knowledgeable in the classic
versions of the Visual Basic language (v.6 and earlier) have a lot more
information on API. And, the VB and VBA languages are sufficiently similar
that much of what they describe can also be used in Access VBA.
