return logged in user name

[Chris Kettenbach]

Good Morning,
I have an asp.net app where I want users to be able to update a database. I
want to automatically pass the logged in persons name to the database as
well. In a vbscript file I can do this easily. How do I do something
similar in asp.net. Thanks for any advice.

'<!-- start .vbs file here -->
Dim oShell
Dim UserName

Set oShell = Wscript.CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
UserName = oShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERNAME%")

WScript.Echo UserName
'<!-- end .vbs file -->

Regards,
Chris
