I've wanted this on occassion, and I agree it would be handy. As far as I
know, the database name and creator code aren't available to your source.
I'd expect some sort of run-time trick would let you retrieve them: we'll
need to figure out what database the current application is running from,
and then look up the information for that database. Maybe there is a "top"
or "last" -opened database field sitting around somewhere?
