Where is the person who made changes to a shared workbook derived from? If I
logon via one machine it gives my full name in the track changes history. If
I logon from another machine, it gives my first initial and last name. I
would like to know why it is different and where the identifier comes from.

On the two systems, do you have different profile details?

I believe TC is shown as the name from Tools, Options, User Name.

Brian,

Thanks for the information. That was it. When I checked the other
computer, I did have another profile with an abbreviated name.
