I saw this thread many times. None of the suggestions in the thread work. I tried them all.

>>I read tons of threads in the stackoverflow and nobody has a clear answer, or just the answer, to how to get a user name in the C# code. VFP does it very simply. So, VFP is much better than C#. The only thing I like in C# is a compiler which checks the syntax and if a variable is used and how. Otherwise, VFP is better.

>>I did think about writing the value in a txt file and then reading it from the C# code. But then I have to make sure that each txt file has a unique name (so that there is no conflict). And then delete the txt file.
>>There has to be a way to return a value from a VFP exe. But if there is none, then writing to a txt file will be the approach.
