Record User id

[Guest]

Is there a way to have Access add a user id to a table with the time, say
when they run a certain query? List the machine id maybe. Without the user
having to key it in every time.

Design an interface (form) where the user can click a button to run the
query. In the button's Click event, you actually execute 2 queries: the
original one, and an Append query that adds the logging record you want.

To get the current computer name, see the code in this link:

Or, if you wanted to record the network user name:

I use

=environ$("ComputerName")

which does the trick for me - just create a field in your table that you
want to store this in and then add that field to your form, set the default
value to that string and bob's your uncle
