    Ive created a page with a formview and corresponding datasource. The form enters values with no problems. Now I've just been asked If I can do the following:

    1. Get the current username
    2 store it in a hidden field (or maybe just declaring it as a variable would be enough?)
    3 Insert along with the rest of the fields into the table.

    This is to put some ownership to each record that has been entered into the database. Everything I've done so far in visual studio I literally havnt written once line of code! Visual studio has let me get very far very easily compared to other languages but the problem now is I dont even know how do this simple stuff.

    Any help would be really apreciated.

    Hi,

    I am not up to speed on formviews but does it get the current user details? If so do a search through the generated asp.net code it will have generated the parameters and sql command that are used to make any connections with the database. If you know how the user name variable is stored then add it to your genertaed sql comand that inserts the data?
