You are right Walden, I did not read the original question. Be more careful next time. Christian ASP-re Inc. Christian Enriquez 440, René-Lévesque O. suite 203 Montréal,Québec, H2Z 1V7 514-392-0007 ou christian@asp-re.com Ah, but screen-level security misses the point. IIRC, the original question dealt with users downloading the file, how does your product prevent that level of access? You could, of course, revoke everyone's access to the files and only access the file through programs that adopt, but most system weren't designed for that. As far as the trigger idea goes, I think in this case I'd replace the values with "Protected by FERPA" or something to that effect rather than *LOVAL. That way users know there is data, but they aren't allowed to see it. Of course if you implement this read trigger how will the programs that ARE allowed access to the data see it? You'll need some way of saying "This job is allowed access", perhaps a dataarea in QTEMP, or a Job Switch (gulp!<G>) or ????? -Walden ------------ Walden H Leverich III President Tech Software (516)627-3800 x11 WaldenL@TechSoftInc.com http://www.TechSoftInc.com _______________________________________________ This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/cgi-bin/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@midrange.com Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
