Hi Taylor,
That sounds like a very good idea. However, they still have to enter the password. If they know user_id and password, then, they can login and do whatever. Am I right? or I am missing a part?
I would like to do every thing in codes, so they won't know what exactly is going on.
Thnaks so much,
Ali

They are mostly worried that the users might go by accident to the shared folder and delete the files from the main database. The idea is they can see and edit data through the application program only.
