I'm just using the Access security as I am still new to Access and it's functions. I've taken a look at this DB Tobi and I have a couple of questions: How do you set up what the users can or can't see/edit? I noticed that when I set myself up as Administrator it allowed some things but not others but I couldn't find (or maybe I'm not recognizing) where you set up those rules.
Also, you have an ActiveXCtl76 on one of your forms and I was wondering what it does. Thanks for your help. --- In AccessDevelopers@yahoogroups.com, "Tobi Hoffman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I put up a file, AccessLoginDBs.zip, in the Demos and Sample Files section a > few years ago with code to log in users.
