I have a form that has the default value set to =ENVIRON("USERNAME")

This has worked correctly for 4 years up until today. The last time it
was used was a month ago. Today instead of displaying the USERNAME it is
only display #name. 

I went to a module and put this into the debug immediate screen and yep
it displays the ID fine. Then I tried creating a new form  with the text
box and NOPE - only shows #name.  

It is happening in both A2K and A3k.  Does someone know why and how to
fix?  In A2k I was getting 2 display screens until about 2 weeks ago
when I opened an mdb.  Could this have something to do with the problem.


I need to fix this so others don't worry about problems.

Thanks
