get the address

This read-only property tells you where on the AppleTalk network you are, in the form zone:computer:program. If zone is an asterisk (*), either your system is not on a network or the network has just one zone.

So if you're running HyperCard on a computer named Quille on a zone called HyperText, the statement put the address yields HyperText:Quille:HyperCard

If you're running HyperCard on an unnamed computer that's not on a network, you get

*::HyperCard

This property requires System 7.0 or later.

Examples

put the address into cd fld "MyNetworkSpot"
