As everyone seems to be noticing the SYS(0) function returns a different value between FP and VFP flavors of the app. I have not been able to find a function in 2.6 to get the user name. We happen to put the user name into an environment variable so I use GETENV() to try and pull the user name. But on Citrix/Winframe/TS this often does not work at all. I know this isn't much help but might save you some time troubleshooting.
