User permissions validation textWithin my database i have set up user groups with passwords and then have
related user permissions. When a user tries to access something they aren't allowed to the error message comes up as "There was an error executing the command". Is there any chance of changing this text? Many Thanks, Matt Matt Dawson wrote:

It is easier to manage security that way. > When a user tries to access something they aren't allowed to the error How about doing away with the opportunity for the message to come up at all? > message comes up as "There was an error executing the command". > Is there any chance of changing this text? If you have used the switchboard manager to create a main menu, consider creating your own. You just need an unbound form with all the command buttons you like on it. It's easy to program the command buttons to open various forms/reports. Also this gives you the flexibility of hiding buttons that the current user shouldn't see. If they don't see them, they can't click them and get the message. There is code in the security FAQ you can use to determine if a user is a member of a group. You can check this in the Open event for your main form, and then set the visibility of various buttons based on group membership.
