Printing Userid on the Report

Is there any way in a windows environment to get the userid to print? The userid is an environment variable that I need to pull into the report somehow.____We have some users who don^t claim their reports; having their userid on it would help. I am trying to do this without having to prompt for their name.____Thanks,__Steve

If there is a Windows DLL that you could call to return that information, then you could use the CDLL() function in a calculated field to return the value.__But I do not have the programming background to suggest a specific function or to even know if one is really available.______Kathleen__R&R Support

Steve:____I was looking through the R&R messages looking for some help with letting users get reports from a web browser, when I saw your message about get the user-id for a report.____We do that on most of our reports. We have a DLL which returns the contents of an environment variable. I^ll be glad to send it to you if e-mail me.____My e-mail address is gfeather@ufcw.org____Gene Feather
