Obtain User ID
 

Use

Environ("Username")

This returns the Windows user name.

Few more.

If you want to check the domain and user name use the below ...

'-----Retrieve Domain Name
' Reference Active DS Type Library Tools|Reference
Dim strAD As New ADSystemInfo
strDomainname = strAD.DomainShortName

'-----Get User Name
Set objNet = CreateObject("WScript.NetWork")
strUserName = Trim(objNet.UserName)

If this post helps click Yes
