Re: user id when vb program calls rpgle

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You COULD call the QSYRUSRI API with format USRI0300, but a much simpler 
way is to use posiions 358-367 of the Program Status Data Structure 
(PSDS).

At least, I'm guessing that you're using positions 254-263.  However 
that's actually the user component of the job identifier.  The job 
identifier doesn't change when you swap user profiles, so that'll be 
inaccurate anytime you swap them (for example, in a network server 
program).   Positions 358-367 are the "current" user profile, and will 
change when the user profile changes.

Good luck
