    I have an application that communicates with an IP address (the ip is hardcoded into the application). The original IP has changed and now my application wont work. Is there a way I can translate the old ip into the new ip using windows?

    I tried modifying the hosts file but that didn't work.

    Always a bad idea to hard code IP's IMHO.

    Is there no other way? The business that coded the software has gone out of business.
