Good morning,
I launch an application in a TSE session. This application is in PowerBuilder 19 R3.
In this session, I need to retrieve the name of the remote machine that started the TSE session.
For this I use the following function:

Function ulong GetEnvironmentVariableW (ref string lpName, &
ref string lpBuffer, &
ulong nSize &
) library "kernel32.dll" alias for "GetEnvironmentVariableW;"

This function does not return the expected name.

Can you help me solve this problem?

Thank you for your help

Hi, Jean-Louis -

Unsure of what "TSE" is, I had to resort to doing a search and it came back with 68 possible meanings. I'm guessing you are referring to Terminal Server Edition and not Tokyo Stock Exchange nor Treated Sewage Effluent?

What specific Windows environment variable did you request via the WinAPI function call?

Best regards, John

Good morning,
Thank you for your feedback.
Indeed TSE is Terminal Server Edition:)

The parameter sent to the function is CLIENTNAME
Maybe I should use the USERNAME parameter

I’ll try
