    Use a formula field to show the current user. The formula is

    –––
    user()
    –––

    I wanted to keep a trace of the last person who changed a record.
    I was thinkig of something that could be use in a Trigger, "user()" does not seem to work in a Trigger.

    User_Trigger := user()

    just use a formula field and give this as the formula:

    –––
    user()
    –––

    You can use the id unique number sequence of the user the make the trigger thereafter.

    Field A := user();
    Field B := if Field B = "given id" then
    "xxx"
    else

    "yyy"

    it is a workaround so should be perfect to have a Ninox update on this with automated formula

    hope it helps
