open a file with one of the passwords ?

[jiehuang001]

I have a login.fp5 file that will allow user to login into my menu.fp5 file. For this menu.fp5 file, there are 5 passwords with 5 different privilege.

Then I need to create 5 opener files (such as opener_1.fp5, opener_2.fp5, opener_3.fp5, opener_4.fp5, opener_5.fp5) to allow users with different login to open this menu.fp5 file. When a user is logged in, he is directed to one of these 5 opener files and then the opener file will open the menu.fp5 file with the according privilege.

My question is "why do I need to create a opener file to open the menu.fp5 file?" Can I implement this within a script such as "when username/password correct, open file menu.fp5 with password_1".

Please help.

I would create my open script to use an IF:

If(StatusCurrentGroup = "Whatever that group name is" then Open, Opener1

Create that statement for each group.

I hope this is not as clear as mud and helps!

What's to stop me from calling one of the opener files directly and bypassing your security system?

Hi, can you please tell me exactly how to write the following script?

If(StatusCurrentGroup = "Whatever that group name is" then Open, Opener1

Is Opener1 a separate file whose only function is to open another file?

thanks.
