Check box to return information

[Danny729]

I'm very new to access so please dumb down all responses!


I have a database and form set up, but what if like to do is prove who approved of each firm. Since having a text box can allow anyone to type a name in I'm looking for an alternative method.
One thing I'd like to implement is a check box that, when checked, a field record the network username of who checked the check box, and another field that records the date the was checked.
Is this possible? If so, how do I do this?

Explore the Environ() function.

Me!USERfieldname = Environ("USERNAME")
Me!DATEfieldname = Date()

Place code in checkbox AfterUpdate event.

I can't believe it was that easy! Thank you so much for the quick response. It worked perfectly.
