The currently logged-on user is already logged with the error and displayed 
under 
the User column on the error log page. Is that not sufficient to identify the 
user 
to contact?

The application I have uses a custom logging solution.  Your comment does give 
me an
idea.  Perhaps there is a way that I can take the logon credentials from my 
custom
solution and then use that information to "log" the person on and thus the ELMAH
error logging would pick up the 'logged-on' user info

If you make your custom logging solution a standard authentication module in 
ASP.NET 
that sets the User property of HttpContext to the logged on user and then the 
rest 
will follow (also ELMAH will pick it up).
