Show user id on a report

[Chris]

I'm using Access to create a report with data from a SQL database.

I've tried using SUSER_SNAME, but each time the result prints as #Name?
Also, CurrentUser simply returns 'Admin' every time since I'm not using the
Access security features.

I'm new to both Access and SQL. Any help greatly appreciated.

If you want to display the network user name, then use the code at
http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0008.htm. You can then add a text box to
your report with a control source of:
=fOSUserName()

You create a new module in your MDB and paste the function into it. Then save
the module with a name like "modAPIs". This will make the function available
in control sources, queries, code,...
