Actually, I appreciate your help but I think I am OK for now. I want to see for a couple of months how many times I actually have to look up users' details. All i have to do for now is, take the host name and Ctrl + F to search. But if i find out that this is worth pursuing the way you...

ah, I didnt think about that. The report is in Excel

Update: IT was able to share a report with me with a list of all host names so I can use that to match the host name with the names. It is a manual process but I am OK with this. This is not something I would have to do on a regular basis. Thank you

Yes, I didn notice that. The user name, when I run it on my machine says 'LOGIN_NAME:Admin'. I have to test it with others to see what it says for them. I am not admin of anything so I am not sure where it is pulling that from. But again - thanks for the info. I will work with host name and IP...

Thats Great. Thank you very much. But how would I identify a user by the IP address? Isnt this the same as the host name (computer name)? Sorry, I must be missing something. Thank you

Thank you - that worked. I now only have to test this to make sure it pulls the info. on multi users (Computer Names). A follow up question is: It shows the computer name of the user who is using the database but the computers name in our organization are made up of alphabets and numbers and...

Appreciate your code. I actually went live without this but definitely want to have this for my next release. Since I am new to this, would you (or anyone) provide me some info. on how to use the code above. 1. I am assuming that the first part of the code is a module that I would have to...

Bump & update: I opened the FE table (not in the deisgn view which is what I was trying to do earlier) added data to the table and closed it. I then opened the FE and the linked table was already updated. For my other question on how to release a revised/updated version of the FE in the future...

Yes, home laptop is also 32 bit.

I tried to open the table in FE in design view to add data to a table and got the attached error. I am trying to add a name to a table so it shows up in the drop down for one of the fields. No I dont mean adding a field. See attached

I understand that. What I am trying to ask is what are the best practices when it comes to updating BE? How do I do that? Yes, there is a lot of fields with blank data that show up on the report in PDF format

Sorry, I have not touched the BE file yet. I want to make sure that I can simply open the BE and update the table. Do I need to be sure that no one is using the db or have it open before I make that change? If I am in the process of updating BE, would the users get an error message if they try...

First I wanted to thank you all for helping me with my questions. I just 'installed' the FE file on most of the machines and things are looking great. No issues except a few and I would like to fix them sooner than later before I start getting calls :) Your help in advance is greatly...

Both of my work laptops with Access 2010 and Access 2013 are Win 7 Enterprise 32-bit. I have to check my home laptop and will let you know. Thank you

Update: I used my work laptop (vs my personal laptop previously) with Access 2010 to make ACCDE from a 2013 file and it worked just fine.
