[ Article crossposted from comp.sys.novell ] [ Author was Manuel Mall ] [ Posted on 22 Jan 93 04:22:35 GMT ] I have what may sound like a trivial problem: To get the Novell LOGIN name and user long name of the currently logged in user into a VisualBasic program (obviously under MS-Windows). So far, we set the user id and the user long name in DOS environment variables as part of the system login script. This is not a very satisfactory solutions. I recently downloaded winup7.zip from ftp.novell.com and found various DLLs in there which looked like having a useful content, i.e. NWNETAPI.DLL and NWIPXSPX.DLL. Now using Microsofts EXEHDR program I can easily find out the names of functions defined in these DLLs, but I have no idea what they do and what the parameter conventions are. Can anyone out there help, or even better does someone have a VisualBasic file with the declarations for these DLLs or at least the relevant ones for my problem.
