Username retrieval 1

[scooby77]

I need to retrieve a username from the system and display it in a box on the bottom of the form using vb.net I can’t get it to work like I used to in VB6.

The username is referenced like so:

System.Environment.UserName

This is of type "String"... gives you the windows login name. Then you just put it wherever you want it, such as a textbox:

TextBox1.Text = System.Environment.UserName
