Account and database records

Featured Replies

I'm making a database that have some records, and I want to use existing accounts to do this:

When I or other user log into File Maker with his account, he can view and write some data, but those records will be visible only for him!!!

This is what i want to do, each user have your account, when they log in, each user will view only yours records, not the records of the other user.

I don't know how to do this, so I'm asking for help!!!

Thank you very much.

You must have one field, which by autoenter options fills username, and when user opens file, opening script must find his records by Get(UserName) function.

No, use the Account Name instead. The User Name can be manipulated through the UI.

I attached example.

The main account and paword is: Admin and aaa

The second account is [Guest] without password

Third account is "other" without password

If user put his account he see only him records.

But Admin with pressing CTRL+A can see all records.
