OSUser() and QVUser()

[Anonymous]

I have an application which was using QVUser() USERID and PASSWORD for application security. I would then have a text box with the name of the Application as follows:

The expression in the text box is:

  =If(QVUser() = 'CHITEMERERE CHRIS', 'Advanced Pharmaceutical Business Intelligence & Analytics Suite', 'Pharmaceutical Business Intelligence & Analytics Suite'). 

The above two text boxes show the two different situations for the expression.

I have now changed my security to NTNAME authentification.  How can the same end result which i had for the application name be achieved with NTNAME security?

Regards.

everything to the right of the = sign should be in all capital letters - you have that for the domain but not the user portion of it

This can come in handy as well.

you can also change your connection based on user...when necessary...

something like this.

Let L = OSUser();   //---> note: for demo purposes  OSUser is   server\xyz

Let C = If(L = 'server\xyz','','');

imp:

load

*

from

$(C)

;

I have a user that leases a license from the server and likes to see updates he has made immediately.  But he doesn't need to update it live to the web server until the nightly batch.  This works great for that circumstance.

Thank you Adam.  This also helped me greatly when I needed to hide a tab from certain users.  I appreciate your help!
