UserName
Data type: string
Access type: Read-only
Name of a user that is logged on currently. This property must have a value. In a terminal services session, UserName returns the name of the user that is logged on to the console—not the user logged on during the terminal service session.
I'm confused now. How am I supposed to use that?

He said workstation, not terminal server
I'm pretty sure it would do that as well

tasklist /FI would work, but I dont get the user name on that.
You need the /V flag.
Here is an example using tasklist.exe:
Code:
Break ON
$=SetOption("WrapAtEOL","ON")
For Each $sLine in WshPipe('tasklist /v /FI "imagename eq explorer.exe" /fo CSV /nh')
$aResult=Split($sLine,'","')
If UBound($aResult)>6 "Logged in user='"+$aResult[6]+"'"+@CRLF EndIf
Next
Function WshPipe($ShellCMD)
Dim $oExec, $Output
$oExec = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Exec($ShellCMD)
If Not VarType($oExec)=9 $WshPipe="WScript.Shell Exec Unsupported" Exit 10 EndIf
$Output = $oExec.StdOut.ReadAll + $oExec.StdErr.ReadAll
$WshPipe=Split(Join(Split($Output,CHR(13)),''),CHR(10))
Exit($oExec.ExitCode)
EndFunction

I seem to remember some command (maybe in the resource kit) which will list all the terminal and console login sessions. I could parse this I thought.
I'm actually looking for the console user. I was just saying that I remember some type of cmd line utility from my TS days that was sort of like a unix "who" command.
Anyway, using the WMIQuery example I'm currently grabbing what I need. Thanks for all of the suggestions!

Well it will ONLY return the ACCOUNT currently logged on at the console. It will NOT return any other accounts on any other type of server.
Yes it will return the ACCOUNT from either Workstation or Server, but only the CONSOLE 0 account, not others.

What is wrong with the silver platter coded solution I presented near the top of the thread? Has anyone tried it?

Howard, long story short - it looks like all he was really wanting was the user logged onto the console which WMI does provide.
I did say though that he might have to use another method if he wants the sessions.

He might have to go with one of the external methods described already if not.
