Thanks, but I'll try Rick Schummer's solution.

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.

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. This is related to permissions in the menu items. That is, for instance, if I have a payroll function in the menu and want one user to have full access to all items in the menu, while other users have limited
access, I just want to develop special menus for each.

My idea is to put all pads, popups and menu bars in a table and have another
one with users like this:


Menu prompt supervisor
clerk A                 clerk B

Payroll x
x
   Employees                                                          x
x
         Employee personal data                                 x
x
         Employee salaries data                                  x
         etc


In the above example, the supervisor has full access while clerk A can only
see all data except salaries and clerk B has no access to the payroll
function at all.

Is there anything done along these lines, so I won't have to spend time
"re-inventing the wheel" ?

Can you share ideas, or code or classes or whatever?

TIA
