I would like to be able to grab the network user id of
people who make changes in the database, similar to the
CURRENTUSER() function. However, I have not set up
security on the database (hence why I cannot use the
CURRENTUSER()). Is there a way to do that in VBA

At first glance, that only seems to work on WINNT or
WIN2K, will a pared down version work if we are on Novell?

Thanks for the help. Sean
 
Sorry Sean I don't know

I would strongly caution against that.

Environment variables are trivial to reset, so that provides no security at
all.
