I am taking over where someone left off/got fired, and I
don't want to change anything from his user log-on. I
just want to change his user id to my name?

Thanks,
Newbie IT guy
 
After creating the new user account and logging on at least once, then while
logged on as another user (with administrative rights) Control
Panel|System|User Profiles, select the oldprofile, Copy To, Browse to
%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\newprofile
Change "Permitted to use:" to "newprofile" OK
