Hi Simon,

You can do the same sort of thing in the framework. Open App.vb and add a shared variable for UserID. You can then access the UserID in your Windows application with AppDesktop.UserID. For more information look in the help file look under "MM .NET Application Object."

>Once I have a valid user logged in to my application, I need to be able to write their UserIDField with every table insert and update.
