I am seeking knowledge of how to write a VBA code in access 2003 that allows
me to call a property function by which I can capture a unique number which
identifies the computer hardware device. I am thinking of something like the
MAK Number that is associated with the hardware of interest since it is
unique and cannot be repeated in any other device. The purpose of this
function is that I would grant accessibility for users to my database
application only if the hardware can be identified in a table that contains
approved MAK numbers. I would greatly appreciate the help I can get in this
regard.

VBNet has some VB code to do this that should work similarly in VBA.
