I'm not sure if I understand 100%, but maybe all you need is a SELECT
statement?  Something like:

SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE col1='name'

If you need to restrict the results more, you can of course add tests to the
WHERE clause.

I'm assuming you mean with PHP running under Windows 2000 as the server
environment?  If so, then phpinfo(); should give you a broad list of
available environment variables, one of which being the user that owns the
process.
