Re: Capture ComputerName and UserName (U)
Another method is to use a free utility named WksInfo I created a while back. It returns this and other information such as path to Office applications with just one $PROCESS$ call. After you retrieve the information ALs would then parse each setting you need. It's open source so you can modify it to return additional information. http://arswiki.org/projects/dotnetutil HTH Stephen Remedy Skilled Professional On Fri, Mar 20, 2009 at 11:14 AM, Wallace, Kelvin wall...@doacs.state.fl.us wrote: Try this: $PROCESS$ cmd /c set USERNAME $PROCESS$ cmd /c set COMPUTERNAME Other stuff: $PROCESS$ cmd /c set USERPROFILE $PROCESS$ cmd /c set windir $PROCESS$ cmd /c set OS $PROCESS$ cmd /c set USERDOMAIN $PROCESS$ cmd /c set LOGONSERVER If anyone knows an easy way to capture the IP address, please let me know.

Filters run on the server side. That's why you're getting the server's information.

You will need to run your $PROCESS$ command in an active link without using @@. Since you are attempting to do this in a filter, I am assuming timing does not matter so you can capture it on window open, window loaded, display, submit, modify..in the active link. Hope this helps.

I tried using Set Fields = $PROCESS$ %COMSPEC% /c echo %COMPUTERNAME% but I get and error -- ARERR [341] Cannot run the requested process Tried using $PROCESS$ c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c hostname and I get the Remedy Server information instead of the clients.
