I'm trying to get the user name to automatically pop into a field called Rep Name and I have the field as required. What I am trying to do is get the network user name that they login to windows with to automatically pop in this field. I have multiple users and i need it to be saved for a report that i generate. Any help with this would be very helpful thanks

To get the username you use the Environ function
for example
Me.RepName = Environ("USERNAME")
there's other information you can get too like computername, etc.

What do you mean that "it is not saving the rep name?"

Make sure the rep control in the report is bound to the same field from the same table/query that the form is.
