It depends whether you want the user to see other "greyed out" functions or not.
What I do is put code in each menu item. If a user has permission, it is enabled, if not, it is disabled. Another approach would be to run them menu associated with the permission. IF supervisor, do supervisor.mpr, if user, do user.mpr. I like the first approach better. --- Rafael Copquin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am trying to develop a menu system geared to the user. > > IOW, user A logs in and his/her particular menu appears, which is different > from user B's menu.
