Got it, thanks. Now my next question is the username that is returned is
ComputerName/UserID. All I need is the user id. How would I take that
string and just get the last three characters?
I know this sounds like a simple question, but I do not have a lot of work
with strings.
Thanks for the info.

Got it! (Just the user name). I switched from SystemInformati on to
Environment and it is returning just the username.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Try something like this.
Dim strUser As String =
Environment.Use rName.Substring (Environment.Us erName.IndexOf( "/") + 1)

I am trying to figure out how to pass set of credentials to System.IO
Challenge is:
App is running under one set of credentials, but via GUI user have a chance
to enter another set. I would like to be able to use supplied credentials

So far I am forced to use WMI which is less convenient and slower then
System.IO, but it's providing me with "Connection Options"
