Is there a FileMaker (11 Advanced) native way to obtain the client's computer name in a script? The computer name shown in FileMaker server when displaying clients connected to a database would do nicely.
Purpose: I'm looking to have filemaker recall and set window position based on user and computer. (The same user could have a different window position and size preference for their laptop than for their desktop -- think of byHost user preferences.)
Alternate: I'm aware that a the client computer name could be grabbed using an external script, but would prefer a native way, if available.
I am still unable to answer the question as asked. However, for the purpose stated, I just found the command
Get ( SystemNICAddress )
It will provide a unique identifier for each computer that will change infrequently. This is all that is required for my purpose and will likely work better than the value I originally requested.
