User password

[Rached]

hi all..this is my school work, so plz help we have this application that connects to ms access db, to manage emplyees. Can u help me on the follwoing issue?

i would like to have 2 users working on the application, "admin" and "assistant"; we want, by default, the admin to have access to all functions in the progarm, while assistant can get access to dew functions only. How can i make a password dialog, on startup, where the user identifies him self; and depending on the user and passowrd, i activate or deactivate some function?

tnx in advance

you can use inputbox or inputquery to catch the password or you can build your own by putting the edits, labels and buttons on a separate form and use showmodal.

bool admin;
bool assist;

if (!strcmp(passworddialog->edit2->text.c_str (), adminpassword))
{
admin = true;
assist = false;
}

if (assist)
dofunction ();

in the future be a little more discreet about the school work. we will give you pointers and recommendations but if some here the word school they will clam up. Please read the policies for this forum. I know there are a lot of students on this forum and I dont mind helping. Please try to spend more time to solve your exercises, and use this as a last resort. Read the help files first. ;-)
