Hi,
Is there a function in CR 8.5 that can get a user name from the environment? I am trying to create a report base who is running the report so I give his/her diff. parameters.

Thanks
 
Hi,

Where would these reports be running? If in Crystal Enterprise then I don't think there is a way to easily do this without modifying the CSP pages to capture the username at logon. CE uses the CDRepAdmin account to run reports, and this is the name you will get when you pull it from the report.
