As my topic tells you... I'm trying to figure out how to write
a small application that pings a host. How do I do?

I have imported System.Net into my source.
Using a textbox where I write the hosts IP adress and then I'll hit the Ping
button then
I want a label to show the hosts ping (eg. 56ms etc etc.)

' I've tried using Shell("Ping" & txtIpAdress.Text, AppWinStyle.NoFocus)
' This will open the commandline in minimized no focus style and ping the
host.

I cant find any sources about making your own Ping application in .NET!
