Environ$("USERNAME") not working on some computers
Hi, I'm using Environ$("USERNAME") to get the network login for whomever is
using a database, and some of the users are getting a NAME#? error. Would this have anything to do with the version of Windows they're using? Thanks. -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com http://www.accessmonster.com/Uwe/For...forms/200602/1

Would this have anything to do with the version of Windows they're using? It probably has to do with what Jet service pack they have installed, and whether sandbox mode is enabled or not: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239482/en-us How to configure Jet 4.0 to prevent unsafe functions from running in Access 2000 and Access 2002 -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup)

Environ$("USERNAME") not working on some computers
Dirk, Thank you for replying...I did manage to get the fosUserName module to
work, so I'm using that in place of Environ$("USERNAME"). However, I'm just wondering if they'll have that same problem if the incorrect version of the Jet service pack is installed. Thanks again.

I don't see why it should be affected by any Jet service packs. -- Dirk Goldgar, MS Access MVP www.datagnostics.com (please reply to the newsgroup)
