You could get the network userid of the person. I picked
up this code(note the copyright notice) written by Dev
Ashish. I have not tried it. Good luck

API: Get Login name userId


(Q) How do I retrieve the UserName with which the user is
logged into the network?
(A) Paste the following code in a new module and call the
function fOSUserName.

Alias _
"GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As
Long
Function fOSUserName() As String
' Returns the network login name
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)
Else
fOSUserName = vbNullString
