| I am using a MS Access front end to SQL Server 2005. I have a Switchboard on the Access side. I want to block certain users from accessing the Data Entry Switchboard. What would be the best approach to this? I was thinking of blocking access depending on the user name. How can I determine what user is logged on to SQL Server and then use that info to block the access? Thanks in advance. |

| select system_user will give the login.Depends on your app how you use it.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

| nr thanks for your reply. On my main Switchboard I have several buttons, one of which is a Data Entry button. I want to basically authenticate a user to be able to open the Data Entry screen or pop up a message box stating that the user does not have permission. Sould this be done on the Access side or SQL Server side and what would be the best approach? |
