MS Office Forum / General MS InfoPath Questions / January 2008SharePoint UserName
Hi I am using Infopath 2007 and Moss 2007. I saw the UserName function and was excited - only to find out later that it still gets the windows user and not the sharepoint user. When I go to my sharepoint site from another user's machine (sign in as a different user)- I still want to see my name populated on the form. Currently it populates the logged in windows username... Am I missing something? Thanks Kalpana > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Thanks > Kalpana Hi Kalpana, I haven't tried this but the following link might of some help: http://jonesie.net.nz/InfoPathSettingParametersOnWebServiceCallsWhenAFormLoads.aspx Thanks, Paresh What type of authentication are you using? If Integrated, your windows username is passed to sharepoint. If FBA, you'd need to provide some sort of mapping from the FBA name to the Windows name, then write a web service to get the value. HTH > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Thanks > Kalpana It is windows authenticated. But when you use the sign in as different user and you upload documents - you get the new user name right? If so, why can't i with the Infopah UserName functionality Thanks Kalpana > What type of authentication are you using? If Integrated, your > windows username is passed to sharepoint.

Things to consider: 1) Are you using IP Forms service, or the client? 2) IP relies on internet explorer security settings for login, so you may want to look at the User Authentication settings, specifically, logon related items. 3) IE7 is supposed to provide some improvements for IP2007. > It is windows authenticated.
