Is there a way to set a "Page" on a form invisible based on the User that is logged on? or the group the user is a member of?
 
Sure, but when you are referring to page to you really mean the page of the form or the page of a tab control? How do you navigate between your pages? Command buttons? Post back with this information and I can help you.

In the OnOpen event procedure of the Form put code to make the page invisible. Here is an example of the VBA code to do this:
If CurrentUser() = "Bob" Then
Me![SecurityInfo].Visible = False
End If

Post back with questions.

Thanks scriverb, works great~! Is there also a way to have a conditional statement based on group?
 
Yes, there is but I won't be able to post that one until sometime on Saturday.

Hi scriverb,

I could still use the assistance if you're still available.
 
You can get code to determine whether or not the user is in a specific group in the security faq. You can get that from microsoft or from my website.
