I want to collect the IP addreses of my visitors when they complete a web
form. I do NOT want the IP address visible when the form results are
displayed within the saved HTML file specified in the "form properties".

I see that I can collect IP data associated with a particular form by
checking "remote computer name" under the "saved fields" tab under "form
properties, options, saved fields" I do not see the exact "name" for this
field, which I am assuming, could be specified as a "hidden field" (with no
value) under the "form properties", "advanced" selection.

If I'm guessing correctly, I need the exact name for the IP data field which
is not evident in either the dialogue boxes nor any of the help reference
text. If this is the proper method, what then are the considerations for the
"saved" data file (html) when I want to access IP data which had been
"hidden"?

Any direction is appreciated

You can not specific the field as a hidden field or directly access it, as it is processed directly
by the FP Form Handler.

Is there a work around to achieve this function?
Could the values be passed from

The workaround would be to use server-side script, such as ASP, PHP, etc. You may also be able to
use JavaScript to do this as well.
