AnsiString mjgetnicinfo()
{
   IP_ADAPTER_INFO AdapterInfo[16]; AnsiString retv=""; unsigned int ii;  
DWORD dwBufLen,dwStatus;
   dwBufLen=sizeof(AdapterInfo);  
dwStatus=GetAdaptersInfo(AdapterInfo,&dwBufLen);
   if (dwStatus!=ERROR_SUCCESS) return "**Could not Obtain NIC Info";
   PIP_ADAPTER_INFO pAdapterInfo=AdapterInfo;
   do
   {
     retv+="Name :"+AnsiString(pAdapterInfo->AdapterName)+"\r\nDescription  
:"+
           AnsiString(pAdapterInfo->Description)+"\r\nMAC :";
     for (ii=0;ii<pAdapterInfo->AddressLength;++ii)  
retv+=IntToHex(pAdapterInfo->Address[ii],2)+" ";
     retv+="\r\n"; pAdapterInfo=pAdapterInfo->Next;
   }
   while (pAdapterInfo);
   return retv;
}

Does the routine above work? Hope it helps.
