    We currently use RTEXT to display the time, date & file path on all of our plots. I would like to include the username. Any suggestions? I do not want to use the plot stamp.

    Here's the code we use to display the username for our rtext plot stamps:

    Plotted by: $(upper,$(getvar,"loginname"))

    And if you'd like the full plot stamp we use:

    Drawing: $(upper,$(getvar,"dwgprefix")$(getvar,"dwgname")) Layout Tab: $(upper,$(getvar,"ctab"))
    Xrefs: $(upper,$(xrefs , ,))
    Images: $(upper,$(images , ,))
    Date: $(edtime,$(getvar,date),MO/DD/YYYY) Time: $(edtime,$(getvar,date),HH:MM:SS AM/PM)
    Plotted by: $(upper,$(getvar,"loginname"))

    Of course some of those fields are optional depending on what features you use within AutoCAD. Works great for use and our discipline (civil).
