Hi Hannu -

You can use the Windows API function GetUserName in a VB function. The
documentation is here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...l=/library/en-
us/sysinfo/base/getusername.asp

Additionally, there was a thread about this on comp.lang.basic.visual.m
isc a while ago, you can check it out here: http://tinyurl.com/4qp77
