I am trying to get the Novell username from the environment variable U.
However I am getting an access violation
appearing with the following code:
var
sUserName: String;
begin
SetLength(sUserName, 9);
GetEnvironmentVariable(PChar('u'), PChar(sUserName), 9);
end; <----- The IDE shows this line as the point of the access
violation.
If I use 'username' to get the NT username the code works perfectly.
However I am the only one running NT so I
need the Novell username.
Can anyone tell me why this does not work or point me at a better way to
get the Novell username?
