Look up the InetAddress class:

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/net/InetAddress.html

There should be a method in there that suits your needs.

here's the method:

try {
          InetAddress inetAdd =
              InetAddress.getByName(input.getText());
          output.setText(inetAdd.getHostAddress());
        }
        catch (Exception e1)
        {
          output.setText("ERROR");
        }
