Dan-A Posted January 19, 2003 Posted January 19, 2003 I was able to create an "ADD RECORD" button that verifies if a user has hit the max allowed record limit. What i can't figure out is how to have the button actually create the record when i have disabled most menu options. It seems like if the menu choice for "new record" is not available then even my scripted button will not create the record. Is there a way around this? Thanks --Dan
BertBoye Posted January 19, 2003 Posted January 19, 2003 How are you disabling you menus? With a plug-in? I
jasonwood Posted January 19, 2003 Posted January 19, 2003 Sounds like you might be disabling your users' ability to create records through the password. The restrictions you put in place through passwords are strict, so scripts cannot override them. Through passwords, you can also disable menu commands. Unfortunately it's pretty much all or nothing. The better way would be to use the plugin mentioned in the last post.

HTH... kyle
