I have never tried it, but you could assign permissions to the DBF files based on the user login - or a group of users. I would suggest creating a new group - in which the users of your app are assigned. This way, when new user comes online, you only need to affect the group 1 time. Otherwise, you would have to assign permissions to each file. Don't forget to include other files like memos and indexes as well.
