User ID

[JMorrell]

There is a routine in VB for Access that captures the NT Logon ID of the
user. Is there such a thing with .NET? Where can I find information about
capturing the logged on userID?

use request.servervariables("LOGON_USER")
This should give you DOMAINNAME\USERID,
Parse off the DOMAINNAME from the string.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried it and now I'm having a problem parsing out
the domain. What's the trick to doing that? As you can tell, I'm new to the
dot NET world.

Imports System.Environment
Private UserName As String = Environment.UserName

This is the simplest way.
