How can I know who has logged in Sharepoint during form design

[SteveYau]

Hi there,

I would like to know is there any way that I can open a form view depending
on login?

Basically, I've got an InfoPath form, to be hosted on Office Sharepoint
Server 2007. For that form, I've created multiple views. My question is, when
user had logged in Sharepoint, and open a form for editing, how can I know
the user login name? I need this piece of information so that I can based on
it and some form data to decide which form view to be opened.

That is, during design time, I would like to know how can I get the login
info and put it in Form's Open behaviour to choose a view to open.

Can anyone give me some hints on this?

Thanks very much in advance.

Have you already tried using the userName() function?

An alternative is to use the GetUserByProfile web service. I have done this
in the past based on some of the AD fields you can pull in (department being
the most useful for me).

This has been a useful favorite when I need to pull AD data:

PS - Thanks S.Y.M. Wong-A-Ton, you've saved me tons of work based on stuff
I've found on the net over the past few months.
