Find User Name
By using Winsock control u can findout the Computer Name.My Question is that How to Find out the User Name (of Windows that is Login Name).
If you dont have access to the scripting hosts its:
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function GetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" Alias "GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Private Sub Form_Load()
Dim s$, x&
s = String$(255, 0)
x = GetUserName(s, Len(s))
Debug.Print Left$(s, x)
End Sub
Good Luck! :)

here, much easier :
ENVIRON("USERNAME")
ENVIRON("USERNAME")
Same for computer name:
ENVIRON("COMPUTERNAME")
ENVIRON("COMPUTERNAME")
