March 10, 200124 yr Newbies HELP! I am a developer with an idea but I'm stuck. I want to create demo versions of my products where the user can enter two records but not be able to add anymore. I can do that with a script I wrote. However, I need a way to block them from simply entering into the field and "erasing" the record and repeatedly using the same two records. Am I making sense? Would appreciate any suggestions.

March 10, 200124 yr Author Newbies Thanks! I think I've done that. But correct me if I'm wrong - there is still nothing to prevent the user from clicking into the fields and "erasing" (backspace or whatever, like they are editing the field) and in reality keep making "records" even though they technically only have two to use. In other words, they only have two records but they can keep "reusing" them over and over. Can I prevent that?
March 15, 200124 yr I created a set of dummy records (seperate DB) which gets hidden from the user and when the system is shut down and reopened I had a script which recreated these records. This ensured that they could change them during a session but soon as they quit it basically did a revert.
