Get ( AccountName )

[biggles1212]

On the main layout I have "Get ( AccountName )" filling a field of who is logged in.

 

The calculation is simply Get ( AccountName ). How could I get that same field to say essentially "Welcome back, Admin".

 

I have tried "Welcome (Get ( AccountName ))" but the calculation doesn't like that...

 

Help...

Is your calculation unstirred?

[doughemi]

Use

"Welcome, " & Get(AccountName)

 

@Lee, can someone tell the spell-check dictionary to leave "unstored" the heck alone, and not change it to "unstirred"?

oops, that was on my end. Damm autocorrect

Thank you. Didn't know about the secret power behind the '&'

biggles1212.. I hope you were joking when you called the & a secret power. If you were NOT then please stop whatever you are developing and read everything you can on the field data types and all the text handling functionality in FM. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

I prefer my calcs unshaken rather than unstirred.
