Is there a way in scripting to determine if the app is running locally vs on a server?

I'm looking for a way to determine if a .qvw is being run on a local machine vs on a server so that I can set up paths to the .qvds dynamically.

I usually include a config file that defines some variables, pathes, etc.

This config file is environment specific, but located on the same relative path (I also try keeping same relative pathes between different environments for qvds etc.).

edit: But to answer your original question: Look into the system functions in the Help file, like ComputerName( ) etc.

ComputerName() will work well enough for my purposes. Thanks.
