Filter based on CurrentUser

Asked by peggyweber in Access Forms, Databases Miscellaneous

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2003

I would like to filter a list of returned values from a table listed in a form  based on CurrentUser() name appears in specific field on that form.

Note I can get the filter work if I type in a hard code like johndoe in place of where CurrentUser name is being used in the filter.   however if I ask it to use the CurrentUser() name it does not filler and pulls no record.  Even the message box that is setup returns the correct value for the CurrentUser but it just won't filter

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
 
 
Dim usercheck As String
 
usercheck = CurrentUser()
 
Me.Filter = "TTM_TimeCardHours.EmployeeID = 'usercheck'"
Me.FilterOn = True
 
MsgBox CurrentUser() & ", Hi." & usercheck
 
 
End Sub
