Credit Card Number Entry Field Security

[mattlight]

Hi everyone,

How do I, on an order form, allow entry into a credit card number field and then when the record is re-viewed the credit card number should be unviewable unless you are in the admin dept. and not in the sales (different security levels):?

I need to be able to see whilst entering the number so that it is correct so changing the colour of the feild text isn't the answer.

Cheers guys!

If you use the built-in "Users and Groups" access definitions, the visibility of a field can be set by "Group" tied to a password or passwords. In the Groups dialog, layouts and fields can be set to read/write, read only, or not viewable for a given group.

Yet again thanks dude! I really thought I would have to create a script that would copy the contents of credit card number into andother field that was hidden and clear the field originally entered into. This method you've said makes alot more sense and I would have thought there would have been that facility but wasn't sure. I'm scared of getting into the security side of things in case I accidentally locked myself out of my own program!!

Thanks again
