Default %username% turns into test

I am using the resource kit to create a user profile for outlook. I use a
variable for the user name. The variable used is %username%. According to
the resource kit this is the right variable. But, When I logon after setup
office. It create a profile for test. The %username% variable is turning
all user name into test. Does anyone know where to fix?

I can't duplicate this problem. When used as an account name, %username%
always resolves for me to the user's Windows login name, as it should.
