open up start -> run -> cmd (enter)

ping <hostname> or tracert <hostname> will both give you the ip address, or nslookup to get additional information such as the records of a domain

Failing all of the above, you could make a GUI interface in visual basic ;P

You can check out WhoisXY.com to know the ip address of a domain. It has other information such as Whois information of a domain, finding domain of an ip address.

Click to expand...

This would be best.
It will provide you with a lot more details about the domain name and/or IP in question.

Stuff like who is hosting it, where it's hosted, who it belongs to, who to contact, etc...

If you are looking externally then go to iptools.com They have some of the coolest IP features available.
Internally you can use nslookup or ping -a xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx this will give you the DNS name. If this does not return anything then check in the DNS settings as it might not even have an entry.

Hope this helps.

C:\Users\Administrator>nslookup
Default Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.1.254

> google.com
Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.1.254

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: google.com
Addresses: 209.85.169.106
209.85.169.105
209.85.169.104
209.85.169.147

209.85.169.99

> set type=MX

Non-authoritative answer:
google.com MX preference = 30, mail exchanger = alt2.a
google.com MX preference = 40, mail exchanger = alt3.a
google.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = aspmx.
google.com MX preference = 50, mail exchanger = alt4.a
google.com MX preference = 20, mail exchanger = alt1.a

alt3.aspmx.l.google.com internet address = 74.125.127.27
aspmx.l.google.com internet address = 209.85.227.26
alt4.aspmx.l.google.com internet address = 209.85.225.27
alt1.aspmx.l.google.com internet address = 74.125.43.26
