// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Dim http As New Chilkat.Http

// Note: This is not a real API key.  Replace with your own...

success = http.SetUrlVar("ip_address","8.8.8.8")

// Note: When first creating an ip2location.io account, make sure to at least subscribe to the free access.
// Otherwise your API key will not yet work..
Dim jsonStr As String

End If
