Greetings Y'all!

I have a network database on the file server with multiple users. If I set up a global variable to store the username, is the global variable residign on the server or is that on each users computer. In other words, if User A opens the database, and the global variable is A, user B opes it, will it change the global variable for all users to B?

Baiscally I just want to be able to know which user is doing what when multiple users are in the database. Currently I do not use the workgroup username/password features of Acc03. I may investigate useing that at a later date.

Any other ideas is greatly appreciated.

As I understand it, each variable is resident in memory on the local machine.
