Record Level SecurityI have a database that contains records from multiple departments and currently have a check that prevents departmental users from changing/edit records that do not match their departmental code. Basically, it is stored in an form where it checks if current users Dept code = records Dept code if true than it is ‘ok’ to change the record…but if current users Dept code does not = record Dept code ‘No’ change allowed. This has worked fine in the past, but now certain departments are going to have the ability to modify other department records and my little check is going prevent this from happening. I was wondering if there is any type of security measures I can use/add to place record level security to solve my new issue of allowing some departments the ability to change other department records. If your confused, imagine how I feel. More background info: The user must login using his/her USERID/PWD and there are limited security groups in place on tables and forms. Thanks in advance.

Previously you've used department ID but now that's no good. What other entity provides commonality between the users and their records? Once you've identified this entity and stored it in each record the rest should be easy. Regards, Keith. www.keithwilby.com
