edit just one field

ok, I am using filemaker 6, and one of the passwords I have created gives access only to browse the database. I need to give the password access to edit 1 field and 1 field only. I have no idea how to go about creating a calculation to make this work. I was thinking something along the lines of:

Status ( CurrentFieldName ) = "Name of field they are allowed to edit"

but I am not sure if that would work or not. I wanted to make sure that I had something that would work before I put it into the database.

Thanks,

Rick

Rick,

Access control at the field level can be setup with Groups. Setup the passwords first and then add group privileges.

Is there a way to restrict a user / or group from Hitting a Button and running a script? I want to restrict it so the users do not run a script.
