In an MSAccess 2003 database, how do I identify and refer to the current user?
 
Application.CurrentUser will work only if you are using Access User Level
Security (ULS). If you have not implemented ULS within Access, then this will
simply return "Admin" for each user. You can identify each user by their
NTUserID. Use the code found here to do so:

API: Get Login name
