     If you are looking for a simple routine to get the user name and
     connection number for a Novell workstation, here it is.
     
     This routine was built in VisualC++ to overcome problems with a
     bin routine called Novelinf also posted in this CompuServe library.
     
     I discovered that the novelinf.bin routines will corrupt your data 
     in certain circumstances.  Where I discovered it was when you create
     a compact EXE file and run the resulting program in standard mode:

          i.e. program name called:  imenu.exe
          
          run it as such:  imenu -x     and the novelinf routines will
                                        corrupt your data.
                                        
     The author of novelinf.bin posted the original of this routine dated
     02/12/90.  He posted an updated version of this bin file dated 07-10-91
     claiming that it corrected a problem with the first memory variable
     in memory was corrupted.  But, alas, the new version corrupted the 
     second memory variable in memory.
                                        
     The enclosed program CNOVELL is not a bin file so it doesn't have
     this problem.  It is written in C and compiled into a FoxPro.PLB
     using the FoxPro Library Construction Kit.
     
     The source code and make files for MicroSoft VisualC have been
     provided.
     
     To compile it yourself, you will have to make a few changes to
     the visualc.mak file to indicate in which directories your files                                        
     are located.
     
     Then simply type:   COMPILE CNOVELL
     
     The resulting CNOVELL.PLB file can be loaded and its routines
     called as follows:
     
	SET LIBRARY TO CNOVELL ADDITIVE
	
	? USER_NAME()            && returns blank if not on a network
	? CONNECTION()           && returns 0 if not connected to network
	? NODE()                 && returns the Novell node address
	
	RELEASE LIBRARY CNOVELL
	
	****************************************************************
	ADDITIONS:  3-7-96 COMPILED THE LIBRARY INTO AN FLL FOR USE IN
	FOXPRO FOR WINDOWS APPLICATIONS.
