From workflow you can obtain process creator, for example, using /process_data/@creator_id... is that the sort of thing you mean?



If your Livecycle server is synchronized with the LDAP database then you can use the LookupUser Component from Avoka http://www.avoka.com to obtain the user's lastname, firstname etc.



Then use a setvalue DSC to assign these values into your form.



Cheers,

Also Adobe has it's own LDAP component under the Foundation category.
