Description

The GETUID() function returns the user number. In UNIX/Linux, this is the user number of the logged in user from the /etc/passwd file. In OpenVMS this is the user number extracted from the UIC of the logged in user from the system authorization file. The GETUID() returns a decimal value. OpenVMS user IDs are stored in octal. You may use the STR() function to convert the OpenVMS value to octal when using the GETUID() function.


Example

use accounts
@2,3 get name
@3,3 get rates;
when getuid() > 100 and getuid() < 200
