DAO, Access .mdw files etc.

I am quite new to the whole VB / database manipulation sector, but I am getting very involved very quickly!!

Anyway, I am trying to call the current users name from a secure .mdw file on a network using DAO data controls and I am not getting very far.

Please take pity on one so young and HELP!!!

Kindly elaborate on what you are trying to achieve with the mdw file and why so?

Cheers for the interest msdnexpert - I need to show the current user and current time / date as well as a submitted comment in a small scale contact management system, and then disable the comment so that it cannot be altered.
The .mdw file comes into play as I have already set up a secure workgroup on my network with names / permissions etc. and I was hoping to be able to pull the username down from there.

Any ideas?
