Is there a built in function to already do this (in admin cp) or would it be better to use simple_query.

Can't remember off the top of my head, but a query is very easy to do anyway:

PHP Code:

$uid = $db->fetch_field($db->simple_select('users', 'uid', 'username="'.$db->escape_string($username).'"'), 'uid'); 

PHP Code:

function get_user($uid) 

In functions.php

Example:

PHP Code:

$u = get_user(1);
echo $u['username']; 

^ Oh crap, I read the title round the wrong way :/

Thanks for clearing that up Toungue

Oh nice
