Get Username using macro

[rooster]

I am working on a system with an Excel front-end, using an access database (connecting using DAO)
I am trying to add logging (description of changes in a 'logs' table) using access macros, and need to add current users username.
I know you can do this a VBA function, but these don't seem to run when i edit the db from Excel VBA. Is there someway to get username using a Access macro? Or get VBA code to run?

thankful for any help...

I don't really know much about excel, and to be honest I'm not sure why you would want to use excel as a frontend, however, access can do it, a quick google: access get username (first link in list)

Provides a vba function to get the current users login.

This works for me in Access/VBA

VBA.Environ("USERNAME")

Yes, type it exactly as shown.

Why Excel frontend?
