In a Windows XP system, not connected to a local net, how can I find out who
the current logged in user is? Thanks and best regards.

Ctrl+Alt+Del and select User tab.

This threw me for a second. Click the Start button and look at
bottom of the start menu's display. You'll see "Log off XYZ"
where XYZ = the current logged on user.

You could always look for the value of the environment variable "username" I
suppose.

In BATCH, the variable is returned by %USERNAME% - otherwise, depends on the
language you're using.
