1)In a form called Form1,When I look into the Text Box properties of &amp;quot;Form1_userAlias&amp;quot;, its default Value  is set to userName()..........................

what information is collected by a username function, with open and closed brackets ?

2) Also, Can someone explain what is the net effect of the steps below............................


When I go into a Rule, there is an action 

which has a field &amp;quot;Form1_assignedto_Form4&amp;quot; and
 Value as @Name [Form1_userAlias=@alias]

This is urgent, please help</description></item></channel></rss>
