I am using Instant Web Publishing. I followed the instruction to the letter for limiting access on a record by record basis. Cant get it to work. Hoping someone has some input for me.

Here is what I did:

Created a new text field in my records called "record_created_by." I set the Auto Enter options to Creater Name.

I created a new record and typed "orton" into the field "record_created_by."

I created a new password named "orton." For the priviledges is chose Browse Records Limited. For the Limited calculation I used record_created_by = Status(CurrentUserName).

Now according to the instructions what this should accomplish is using the Instant Web Publishing, when someone goes to database they are prompted to enter their user id and password. When I enter the password "orton" which matches one of the records with the field "record_created_by," all that comes up is a record with all the fields containing <No Access>

If I am understanding it correctly what SHOULD be coming up is the particular record containing "orton" and the user should be able to browse that record.

Anyone have a thought as to why I am getting the <No Access> response?
