VBA - Windows Script Host Object Model - Network

So the Windows Script Host Object Model is a great COM library scriptable in VBA with plenty of features worth blogging. First up we can show the Network object. This can give a user's computer name and also help query if the user is logged onto an enterprise network (which may influence licensing).



    
Sub Illustrating_WshNetwork()
    '* Tools->References Windows Script Host Object Model   (C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wshom.ocx)
    Dim oNetwork As New IWshRuntimeLibrary.WshNetwork
    
    Dim sOrganization As String, sSite As String, sUserProfile As String
    sOrganization = "#N/A"
    sSite = "#N/A"
    sUserProfile = "#N/A"
    SafeGetNetworkOrganizationSiteUserProfile oNetwork, sOrganization, sSite, sUserProfile
    
    Debug.Print "ComputerName:" & oNetwork.ComputerName
    Debug.Print "UserName:" & oNetwork.UserName
    Debug.Print "UserDomain:" & oNetwork.UserDomain
    Debug.Print "Site:" & sSite
    Debug.Print "Organization:" & sOrganization
    Debug.Print "UserProfile:" & sUserProfile
    
    Stop
    

End Sub

Sub SafeGetNetworkOrganizationSiteUserProfile(ByVal oNetwork As WshNetwork, _
                    ByRef psOrganization As String, ByRef psSite As String, ByRef psUserProfile As String)
    On Error Resume Next
    
    psOrganization = oNetwork.Organization
    psSite = oNetwork.Site
    psUserProfile = oNetwork.UserProfile


End Sub
