Enable selection on system function; especially OSUSER() function

Hi everybody,

I'm currently creating an extension, but now I'm facing some trouble; let me explain it:

I want to be able to SELECT the OSUSER().

In fact, each User will have the possibility to comment on some alerts. the user ID is written as follow:

=SubField( SubField( OSUser(),';',1),'=',2)&'\'&SubField( SubField( OSUser(),';',2),'=',2)

What I do, is in my Javascript file, I want to revoer this and put it in the UserID field of the extension:

var selState = app.selectionState( );

var listener = function() {

$scope.userID=selState.selections[0].selectedValues[0].qName;

};

selState.OnData.bind( listener );

BUT. when I click on it: the OSUSER(), It won't appear on the selections area and thus I can recover it using this:

$scope.userID=selState.selections[0].selectedValues[0].qName;

What should i do?

How could I recover the OSUSER() and being able to select it?

Thanks !

I found a way to do it;

connect to excel file where all the UserIDs are ;

and create a master dimension as follow:

if (UserID=SubField( SubField( OSUser(),';',1),'=',2)&'\'&SubField( SubField( OSUser(),';',2),'=',2),UserID, null())

with each one will have only his UserID that appears and can select it
