Title:
Vfp Getenv() returns blanks
We are in the process of converting from FPW2.6 to VFP3 on a Novell Network.
In FPW26, we always used Getenv('FullName') to retrieve the user "Full Name" from the network.
This always worked fine. However, in VFP3 the same Getenv('FullName') function will work on
a few machines but in most cases the function returns a blank. The workstation PCs are
running either Win95 or Win31. The Getenv() fails on both types of workstaions.
Has anybody else noticed this behaviour? How did you work around it?
We bought a copy of Gplib and this got us around the problem by using a gplib function to
return the user's full name.
