Go to the web site for whatever brand of HD you are using and download there tool kit. this will pull off the serial number so you can key it into the Access database.

Thanks,My question mean that when somebody type in the dos command(Vol) will get the information like(Volium serial Numbe is 265B-12DB).
How I can Get this information in the access form by VB Code

Create a new vb project.
Add in a reference to Microsoft WMI Scripting V1.1 tlb. (downloadable from Microsoft, if you dont have it)

Use the following VB code:

Set objinst = GetObject("WinMgmts::Win32_LogicalDisk='C:'")

MsgBox (GetObject("WinMgmts::Win32_LogicalDisk='C:'").VolumeSerialNumber)

You should be able to do something similar to this in Access as its just VB script
