USERID FIELD

I need help with creating an userid field from the username that is listed in a related field. The userid then will be used to set permissions. Is there a formula work-around to make this work. In big need of this.... Thanks in Advance!

  • The formula would be ToUser([my user name field])

    ...  assuming that the field that you have is really the username field and not a just field like John Smith which is just First Name and Last Name as there are many John Smith's in this world who might use Quickbase.

      Thanks Mark - I realized what was wrong when you commented; "not a just field like John Smith" Hope you are well
