How to get the User Name when using the SyteLine Web Client?

I am able to get the UserName when using the SyteLine Desktop Client using USERNAME(). However, when the form is opened using the SyteLine Web Client the IIS Datapool App user is returned.

I have tried using:

USERNAME()

System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name

Environment.UserName

They all return the IIS Datapool App user when using the SyteLine Web Client.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciate.

Thank you/

Are you trying to retrieve the username in in form script?

Yes for the last 2 options. For UERNAME() I just set the value using an event handler.

Sorry, I thought I had done this awhile ago but now that I look at my coding I did the same event handler to set a variable to use too. D'oh!

I set a variable in a previous event handler SETVARVALUES(varUserName=USERNAME()), then retrieve this in the form script, or pass into the form script as a parameter from the event handler that calls the script.
