Hi all, I am concerned about the security issues with the database server and the application server. I have been working with a connection inside the dbc for the remotes view with a fixed user/pwd, but i will like to use the user/pwd of the rdms in order to protect the data, (some users can only select etc) So if i leave the connection witout user/pwd the login prompt of the odbc appearch each time the view is 'used' , change form etc.close form etc. What would be the approach to use the login data of the application in order to pass it seamlessly to the DBserver so that the security issues of grants, selects, inserts etc be validated. I know I can prevent data modification from MY app via code and some framework's security features, but what if someone goes to the dbc and modifies via vfp ?

Thanks
