Is it possible to get either the IP Address or station name of the PC that has called a web method? If so, could you please point
me in the right direction.

Off hand I believe this will give you the requester's IP address:

HttpContext.Current.Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR")

Thanks, Seth. I also found that

Me.Context.Request.UserHostAddress



seems to work within my local network. I sent a link to our partner on the other side of the T1 line to test if the correct IP
address arrives after passing through the routers and firewalls.
