I am using DBISAM 4 within an Asta middleware server and want to create an
Engine.BeforeDeleteTrigger event to record details when certain types of records are
deleted. I want to include in a log the remote user whose session triggered the deletion.
It appears that the TriggerSession.CurrentServerUser parameter should hold that value but
it is unclear how that property gets filled in the first place since user log-in takes
place through the Asta socket components. Any advice would be appreciated.

Unfortunately the CurrentServerUser parameter is only filled in when using
the DBISAM database server.

Tim,

Is there any other value I can fill/pull from a TriggerSession to identify the remote user
who intiated a deletion?

Well, if there's a way via ASTA to find out the remote user's name, then you
may be able to do so by using threadvars or something similar, but it will
probably be messy.
