Getting user name from Novell

[sjmojeck]

I am trying to retrive a username from the registry in windows xp. We are on a Novell network.

I used the following but it doesn't work.

tName = QueryValue("HKey_Current_UseR\Volatile Environment", "NWUSERNAME&quot



Me![txtClosed] = tName
Me![Date Closed] = Now()

This use to work in Windows 98, the only difference being:

tName = QueryValue("Network\Logon", "NetWareUsername&quot


They KEY Network\Logon no longer exists in XP.
