Floating is one of the license types listed.  For a user to logon with 
privileges (taking guest users out of the equation here), they must have a 
login name, and a license type, and thus a user record will be created.
 
Joe made an excellent point in his email about permissions, otherwise this may 
not work as expected.
 

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: Re: Determine license type?



Mark,

I think the main problem is actually if you are using Floating licenses.
If you are only using Fixed and/or Read license then the User form
data look up would work.


Melissa,

I think the only way I know to determine this is to turn on the User
log file and write something that parses that for a given 'Login Name'
value. (That script could be called from an active link Set Field
action and the results could be kept in a temp field. That temp field
could later be used in the next Active Link's Run If qualification.)

However that would only tell you if they currently have a write token
and may give you a "false negative" because there might be available
tokens that the user would get when they need one too.

Hope that helps.
