Hello Everyone,

We have a main Form A, and a subfile Form B.  The assignee in Form B can click 
a button, which will call an Active Link, which will open the parent Form A.  
If the user has only "Public" permissions we do NOT want herm (her/him) to 
launch a general query and see other Form A records.  BUT we want users who DO 
have write permissions to Form A to be able to launch a general query and see 
other Form A records.

If I disable the "New Searches" button, our users with write permissions won't 
be able to launch queries.

I tried using an active link to check the user's permissions, and send an error 
message if heesh doesn't have any.  The trouble is, when you do an "Open 
Window" action to display a selection of records, the link first does a search, 
so whether the link fires on "Window Open", "Search", or "Window Loaded" it 
fires before displaying the records and the user doesn't even get to see the 
records you DO want herm to see.

Any suggestions?
