can you do API calls in MapBasic?? i don't werk with mapbasic, rather use
VB to control it, so here's the way to get the user name:
Private Declare Function apiGetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias _
"GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Function fOSUserName() As String
Dim lngLen As Long, lngX As Long
Dim strUserName As String
strUserName = String$(254, 0)
lngLen = 255
lngX = apiGetUserName(strUserName, lngLen)
If lngX <> 0 Then
fOSUserName = Left$(strUserName, lngLen - 1)
End Function
then it's just a matter of setting your username variable to the function:
MapInfoUser = fOSUserName
hope it helps.

Subject: MI-L Calling a User ID
I am building a script to automatically tag a line with the name of the
person who digitised it.
I would like to call the Windows UserName of the currently logged on user to
do this.
Does anyone know how to call the name of the currenltly logged on user with
a MapBasic script?
