I have this command to get the username & it's working fine in FPW , my question is how can I combine this command in a program & put the return username in a memory variable.

Thanks
 
I hope I'm answering the question you're asking. To preserve the username, write a little function stored in a PRG:

Code:
* GetUName.PRG
RETURN GetEnv("username")

To use your function, simply call it and store the result from another program:

Code:
cUserName = GetUName()

GetUName.PRG needs to be in the FoxPro path for that call to work.

Thank's TamarGranor . It's working fine , I need the user name in a form screen program , can I skip the PRG & put evrything in the form program ???

Thank's again
 
Sure. You can just call GetEnv() and store the result in a variable:

cUserName = GetEnv("username")

Then, you can use that variable.
