Ldb Viewer

[JNariss]

Hello,

I have downloaded the Ldbviewer database and I love how it works!!!
Here is my problem:

Each time I check who is in my databases I only receive the name
"Admin".

Is there a way to change this so that I can see the users actual name??
It is a bit difficult having to keep track of which user goes with
which PC. So for now I added a field to my tblUser called "PC Name" and
I keep track of the name of the users computer there. Each time I run
the LdbViewer I go to the tblUser and see who's PC name matches with
the name. Clever huh?? hahaha.

Can I have the LdbViewer some how look up the PC name in my table and
match it with the user name and return me the value?? Or am I stuck??

Thanks,
Justine

You're pretty much stuck.

Unless you've implemented User-level Security, so that all users need to log
into Access, that's the best you'll be able to do. Unless credentials are
presented to Access, all users are identified as Admin. That's why the
computer name is there as well.
