Is there a routine available that can be called from AREV that will return the NT login ID of the user?

<QUOTE>Nerissa,



If I remember correctly, I saw a post on here once that indicated the user name was a part of the station ID for stations logging in under Windows NT.  I believe it was Andrew McCauley that mentioned that, but I can't remember for sure.

<QUOTE>create a bat file that contains:



@echo %username% ] username.txt



then do an osread/dos read of username.txt



you can get fancy and change username.txt to a parameter such %1% that  gets passed to the bat file. Easiest is to redirect the echo output to c:\username.txt.
