Corrected example ...
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
PROPERTY <GroupWithLimitedItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
IF (CVAL('NetUser')) = 'johndoe' THEN
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
PROPERTY <GroupWithLimitedItems> VISIBLE 'TRUE'
ELSE
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'TRUE'
PROPERTY <GroupWithLimitedItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
ENDIF
RETURN
Have fun!

I may have painted myself into a corner.
I have been using the Group Bar as a Menu System as outlined
in several of Razzak's samples.
I new that I could use the property id to disable/enable portions
of object. However I just discovered that I there does not appear
to be a component id for 'ITEMS' in a group.
I had hoped to utilize the property command to disable/enable
ITEMS in a group.
Jan,
R:BASE 7.1 for Windows does not include the <Component ID> for
Items within the Group Bar. (No worries in 7.5/V-8 "Turbo")
I have an application with multiple sub-sets of one Group being
displayed on Group Bar based on user access level.
So, in your case:
01. Create a master Group with "all" possible items and a unique
<GroupWithAllItems>
02. Make a sub-set of master Group with a different Component ID,
such as <GroupWithLimitedItems>, and delete the items you
don't need.
03. Based on the user access level, use the PROPERTY command
accordingly to manage the Groups on Group Bar.
A very simple example: (On After Start Custom EEP)
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
PROPERTY <GroupWithLimitedItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
IF (CVAL('NetUser')) = 'johndoe' THEN
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
PROPERTY <GroupWithLimitedItems> VISIBLE 'TRUE'
ELSE
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'TRUE'
PROPERTY <GroupWithAllItems> VISIBLE 'FALSE'
ENDIF
RETURN
That is just an example ... You can make it sing, if you wish!
Hope that helps!
