    Filter by Records Assigned To User

    Hey,

    I'm trying to create a table that shows only records assigned to the user based on their environ("username"). I tried creating a code that adds the user name to a table, but this won't work as multiple people will be using the database at once.

    I'm pretty new to access, but have good knowledge of VBA with excel. any ideas on how this can be done?

    just in case anyone googles this and wants the answer, shove this in a module and use the function in the query:
    Function UsersName() As String
    UsersName = Environ("UserName")
    End Function

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
