Hi There,
Thank you for the reply, what I was looking for was the actual creator of a vm or vApp (I know that the customer concerned creates a new vApp for ever VM so vApp level would work). I know that the owner can be changed but they are looking for a way of saying Joe Bloggs created this vApp regardless of who the current owner is. I hope my effort to clarify has shed some light on the situation.
Thanks again for the reply
