Is there a way to access the user name that is logged into Accuterm?

I see there is a Server.UserName property but that does not work in a script.

Well, you don't log into AccuTerm as such. Rather, you log into a multi-value database using AccuTerm.

The method of getting the username varies depending on which database you have logged into. For example, you can use the @LOGNAME variable in OpenQM, UniVerse, or UniData. You may also be able to use one of the SYSTEM() functions.

Note those functions return the name that you use to log into the SERVER. If you want the name by which you logged into the CLIENT PC (before you started AccuTerm), then you could use an AccuTerm script of:

InitSession.Output Environ("USERNAME") & vbCr

HTH,

What are the SYSTEM() functions?
