Sorry, it's too late when I noticed that you posted this thread to a specific UT Member.

>>My problem is that I have to manage somehow different user permissions. I have a table where I store the user rigths per form. The form permissions are working well, if somebody has not permission to open the form, or open in read only mode etc.
>>But the problem is that on some forms I have cost fields which I have to hide also in some cases, even if a user has a full (read/write) permission for the form can be that he can not see these special fields.
>>Also has to consider reports, I mean if we see the example described above how can I hide these special cost fields?

>Different rights on Cost, Reports. What we do is have a flag in its user file. ViewCostFlag, ViewSalesFlag, etc. and then we make use of it in the init event of the control. This.Visible = ViewCostFlag, etc.
