G Guest May 23, 2007 #3 Arvin, thanks for response Where is WNerGetUser defined. If I use function as you described, get Compile Error : Function or Sub not defined (on WNetGetUser) TIA again

A Arvin Meyer [MVP] May 23, 2007 #4 Sorry, you do need an API declaration for that: Declare Function WNetGetUser Lib "user" (ByVal sUser As String, nBufferSize As Integer) As Integer Here's the documentation: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa385476.aspx -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com
