March 20, 201411 yr Hi All - I assume, correct me if I'm wrong, that the most secure use of FileMaker's security mechanism in a multi file app, other than using external authentication, is to maintain the accounts and passwords in all files in that multi file app. I'm just wondering how other developers are dealing with adding files to such an app that has been in place at a client site for a period of time. Are you hand entering the accounts in that new file with random passwords and using the Change Password script step to change the password for the accounts in each file? Are you making a clone of one of the existing files and freezing the all account activity on the app somehow until you have that new file done and running? Are you including empty files in your app for "future use"?
