title: How to convert IP Address to IP HostEntry in VB.NET?
body: <p>I'm building a small application that will change your IP address after you type it into a masked text box. I'm really close to figuring it out, but I need help with the h = myNewIP part, as I can't convert from an IP address to an IP Host Entry :</p>
  
  <pre><code>Public Class MainForm
  Dim h As System.Net.IPHostEntry = System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName)
  Dim myNewIP As System.Net.IPAddress
  Dim myIPEndPoint As System.Net.IPEndPoint
  Dim strLocalIp As String
  
  Private Sub
          myNewIP = System.Net.IPAddress.Parse(TextBox1.Text)
          myIPEndPoint = New System.Net.IPEndPoint(myNewIP, 0)
          h = myNewIP
          ipTextBox.Text = myNewIP.ToString
  End Sub
  </code></pre>
