retrieving an instance name

In an DTS ActiveX I need to open an ADODB connection whose Data Source shoud
be the SQLServer instance where the DTS is located.
How can I retrive the instance name?
Thnx

Not that I am aware of. DTS Packages can be run outside the scope of the SQL
Server, or be compiled into VB6 projects.

instance.. .map the return value to a global variable and use it anywhere...
