Macros act exactly like variables, only you can't change them. This:

MsgBox(0,"User Name",@UserName)

...will create a message box showing the name of the currently logged-on user.

See the FileWriteLine example in the help file....

Think you need something like this.

$file = FileOpen("C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\My Documents\log.txt", 1)

; Check if file opened for writing OK
If $file = -1 Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.")
    Exit
EndIf

FileWriteLine($file, "Day Of Year: " & @YDAY) 
FileWriteLine($file, "Day Of Week: " & @WDAY)
FileWriteLine($file, "Year: " & @YEAR) 
FileWriteLine($file, "Month: " & @MON) 
FileWriteLine($file, "Day Of Month: " & @MDAY) 
FileWriteLine($file, "Hour: " & @HOUR) 
FileWriteLine($file, "Minute: " & @Min)
FileWriteLine($file, "Second: " & @SEC)
FileWriteLine($file, "User: " & @UserName)
FileWriteLine($file, "Operating System: " & @OSVersion)
FileWriteLine($file, "===============Seperate===============")
FileClose($file)

Just make a folder labeled log.txt and put it in all users I guess or whtever, just make sure that the address in the script fits also put this in your startup folder. Just Fix the address in the script to fit your needs
