AFAIK, that only returns the user ID, not the domain to which the user ID
belongs.
To get the domain, see the code in
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0040.htm at "The Access Web".
That, of course, assumes that the original poster is looking for the user's
domain, and not the domain to which the server belongs...

I'm sorry, I was thinking that the user name returned by this fonction was
prefixed with the domain name and I didn't take the time to make the
verification on a LAN with a domain server.
