Hi All,

I am new to this forum. I am not familiar with modules. But I needed a event logger for my database and I found a solution via module. I have tested the current code and it works perfectly except for a small blip. I have a field called UserName in the same table which needs to be populated from

Code:
Forms!frmLogin!cmbUserName
my login form which hides after the user logs in. I can't figure out how to write the code so this data enters into the table. Here is the code I have at the moment:

Code:
Option Compare Database
Option Explicit

'Purpose:       Log when your forms/reports are opened/closed.
'Usage:         Open/close events of forms/reports call LogDocOpen() and LogDocClose()

'Set this to False to turn all logging off.
Private Const mbLogDox As Boolean = True
'Name of this module (for error logger.)
Private Const conMod = "ajbLogDoc"

'API calls to get the Windows user name and computer name
Private Declare PtrSafe Function apiGetUserName Lib "advapi32.dll" _
    Alias "GetUserNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long
Private Declare PtrSafe Function apiGetComputerName Lib "kernel32" _
    Alias "GetComputerNameA" (ByVal lpBuffer As String, nSize As Long) As Long

    'Usage:     For a form, set the On Open property to:    =LogDocOpen([Form])
    '           For a report, set the On Open property to:  =LogDocOpen([Report])

I have not used modules much so if someone could edit this code and give me ASAP I would appreciate it very much.
Thanks in Advance.

looks to me like you just need to add an extra line in the code that adds a new record to the recordset
i.e.after the line
rs.AddNew
rs!UserName = Forms!frmLogin!cmbUserName

This line should appear twice, firstly in the LogDocOpen function, and also in the LogDocClose function

if you have the user name in a table what do you need the Window's user name and the Computer name for ?
