Re: username

This is a batch script that will calculate the first and last name and place
them into variables that you can then use.
See my example below.

********************************************
@echo off
for /f "Tokens=1-4" %%a in ('net user "%username%" /domain') do if /i
"%%a"=="Full" if /i "%%b"=="Name" set fnme=%%c
for /f "Tokens=1-4" %%a in ('net user "%username%" /domain') do if /i
"%%a"=="Full" if /i "%%b"=="Name" if /i "%%c"=="%fnme%" set lnme=%%d
echo %fnme% %lnme%
********************************************

I basically figure out the first name and last name from AD and place those
results into variables %fnme% and %lnme%
You could use these variables to do what you are requesting.
