Is it possible to set up some sort of a pop-up in conjunction with a create new record button?

Basically , hit the button, a dialog box comes up that says "Enter your administrative password to create a new record:"

The user enter a password, and hits the either the continue or cancel button. If they hit the continue button and the password they entered equals the correct word, a new record script is run and a new record is created.

Never mind...figured out how to do it using a dialog Box.

Was able to use a "If" step in my script that if the password entered in the dialog box = "this text string" and Status(CurrentMessageChoice) = 1 for the continue button, then a new recored is created, else the script exits.

You are much better off using real access privileges and passwords to control this. It's often quite easy to work around security that relies on scripts alone.

You have also hard-coded the password into the script which is in plain text... if anybody prints the script they'll learn the password.
