Find mode or set provileges?

[miszczykr]

Dear specialists,

My database consists of 11 files. One of them is a kind of bulletin board, where people leave a messages to each others.

One of the field is Attention field, with a View List (All users, Supervisor, and particular names).

My aim is to show users only those messages which are meant for them (ex. John Black is able to see only messages

to "All users" and "John Black").

What I did I set a respective privileges in Browse Records with limitation:

Attention = "John Black" or Attention = "All Users".

It works fine, however there are also other messages with a "not accessible" message on each field.

Is there any way to avoid this - I mean to view just meant records?

Thank you for your help,

Robert

Have people "sign in" when they open the bulletin board -- maybe including a password. Then have the file find the appropriate records.

Also, you'll have to disable menu commands, so they can't perform a "Show All" or any other kind of a find.

Which means you'll need buttons for functions like "Close", "Quit", "Sort", "New", "Delete", "Print", etc.

Thank you. I was trying to do that too complicated (privileges). In meantime I did exactly the same thing that you suggested.

Thank you for your response,

Robert
