Good Day!

Im new to infopath and sharepoint. i was wondering if anyone knows how to retieve the userID of the person who accessed the infopath form from the library and display the ID in the Form upon opening it.

Thank you in advance.

You want the user id from the active directory. Rite ?
Suppose u have a textbox in which u want the current user name to be displayed from the active directory. Upon seeing the properties of this textbox, u can see a value field there. Insert a function called userName() at that place n preview the form.

Hope this helps.

That works fine in preview, but after publishing the form to Forms Server, the userName() function returns "system". How can I solve this issue?
