    Cannot fully access My namespace facility in VS 2005

    I am having difficulty accessing the logged in user name through the
    My.User.Name in the My namespace in VB 2005 - the value is empty.

    I suspect it may have something to do with the fact that this project
    was upgraded from VS 2003, as I have no problems retrieving the user
    name in a project created solely in VS 2005.

    Many thanks for your suggestions.

      In VS2005 only real Windows Applications do initialise then My.User object.
      Call
      My.User.Initial izeWithWindowsU ser() to get this done in other apps (e.g.
      class libraries or shared addins)
