    Look in the registry:


    For WinNT/2K (I assume this works on XP too...)


    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version\RegisteredOrganization



    You'll need to find a way to read this key as VB can't do it on it's own.  You can use API Routines Reg*.  Check msdn (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library) for more details.
