On a form, when Access opens, I want to automatically enter the users ID in a Text Box and then use that value in a Query. How do I go about that?
 

Excel Facts

Add Bullets to Range
Select range. Press Ctrl+1. On Number tab, choose Custom. Type Alt+7 then space then @ sign (using 7 on numeric keypad)
On form Load event, Me.txtMyTextbox = Me.UserName

query criteria: Forms!frmFormName.txtMyTextbox << the form has to be open when the query runs or else you'll get a prompt for the missing value. Use your own object names of course.

I presume you've already taken care of how to create the user ID.
