Is there a way to have the session use windows authentication rather than session.open "ADMIN", "ADMIN", "THEDB", DATE, 0?

I am also using the xapi method to access accpac from outside the program.

I thought I could go in with the normal string, get the user id that matches the current user logged into windows and the pull the password from the database, but the password, of course, comes out as straight "?" marks.

Any ideas?

Thanks
 
This is all in VB6 by the way.
 
Not with using VB, you are stuck with creating your own session. Otherwise it would be too easy to break into Accpac with VB programs, wouldn't it?
