showing windows username in a text box - access form

[p4nny]

Hi,

I'm completely new to Microsoft Access.

I've built a userform and I would like to display the windows ID/logon ID in a text box.

Please could you guide me through the steps?


very much appreciated

Cheers,

Anthony

I've used the fOSusername function for years without issue. I know someone who's very proficient with Access who used the Environ method, but he had to convert to the other for some reason. Sorry, can't remember why, but I think the reason was Windows or network related. Anyway, just saying the custom function would get my vote.
