Tim,
I must not have the auto fill option set, can you tell me where that is? This should do it for me. Thanks again.

Hi,

You can usually just enter the first few letters of the username that appears in the 
Login screen then press return.  It will then ask for your password and you're in.  So, 
even if you had, for example, Tim, Robert and Barb as users on your Mac, when the login 
screen was active, you could just enter "r o", press return then your password 
and you'd be in.

HTH.

Later...

   Hmmm. I tried that option before and it requires typing in two things not 
just my password so I went back to the other option. I am the only user on this 
Mac.

   Is there a shortcut to login on the Mac?Its not runnuign at tyhe momenbt so 
let me explain. When I first turn the Mac on, its in a window and I have to 
move past 3 or 4 items (I dont recall what those items are at the moment) 
before I get to my login account and sign in. If that was clear, then I want to 
know if I can change a setting somewhere so I land directly on that sign in. 
Thanks.
