Limit User From Accessing A Specific Form

Jan 11, 2008

I am having a problem restricting a user from a certain form.
I have a module that detects if a user or admin based on the roles entered in the employees table.

If their windows login is not listed in the employees table, they will not be able to view any of the forms.

Here's my problem, I want the users to access the switchboard, but they should not be able to get into the reporting button.

here's my code:
If LOAStatusbtn.Caption = "View Report" _
And Not admin _
Then
'useraccess denied because not an admin
error_text = "You do not have privileges to access this screen." & vbCr & "Please contact an administrator"
MsgBox error_text, , "No Privileges"

End If

If they click on LOAStatusbtn and their role is not admin, then a message should pop up.

I searched the forum and could not find anything similar to this.

Thank you,

General :: Setting Limit For User To View Specific Data

Aug 6, 2012

I am trying to limit what a user can see when accessing a database in access. I am only testing with this in access before taking it to SQL server. I have 3 databases and I combined the data into one set of tables and now what i am trying to do is a certain user can only view data from a particular database.

I have a table with the users id and password, as well as an ID number from each database that I am trying to tie to the users.

for example one user can view and add/edit data in databases 1 and 3 but not 2. while there might be a user that can view and add/edit on 1 and 2 but not 3.

Forms :: Limit User Access In Form And Report

Jun 19, 2015

what is the best way and good practice in limiting user's access in form or report.For example, i have 2 users in my UserTable, one is Administrator and the other is just ordinary user.In case i want the ordinary user to open the form in "Read Only" mode, and the Administrator in "Edit" mode.

Do I need to make a code for each form to be opened or there's another easy way to handle this? (I am thinking for additional fields in UserTable to store their individual rights, but after that i don't know what to do next)

Forms :: Way To Limit The Number Of Entries A User Can Make To A Form Based On A Value

Jan 20, 2015

My problem is the following: when I receive say 5 computers in a purchase form, I want to register the serial number of each of them in another form, bound to another table.If I receive 2 units in the purchase form, my user should only be able to input 2 records in the serial form (a continuous form), if we receive 3, then only 3 records,I cannot quite figure out how to build this second (serial number registration form), so that it refuses input after the correct number has been reached.

Form Opens To Records Only For Specific User?

Nov 7, 2005

I have a User Main Menu as seen below with the command buttons for New Work Log Entry and Edit Work Log Entry. The New Work Log entry opens a blank Work Log as shown below. The Work Log form's record source is tblWorkLog. The user will fill out all the fields except the End Page and Total Worked Pages. The user will then exit out of the database. When ready to enter the total worked pages the user log back in to the db and will click on the Edit Work Log Entry.

This is supposed to open up the last entry the current user was working on so that he or she can enter the End Page and Total Worked Pages

Currently it is opening up the last entry of the table even if it was a different user's.

How can I change this? I need it where it opens up the last record for that person. There are going to be 50 users so I can't have it open up to the last record of the table.

Any help will be apppreciated.

Forms :: Form Reminders For Specific User Only?

Feb 25, 2014

In my database, I have a form of reminder.

The base is splitet into front and back end, and are located on the server. Each user is assigned rights what can be done in the database.

The problem where I am "stuck" is to make the form reminder that can be seen only by those users whose jobs are not completed and not all users of the database. Each user uses his computer with your username and password. I tried to connect to form reminder with this information, but I failed.

Aug 12, 2015

I have built a Travel database and what I'm trying to accomplish is sending the form. For instance, If I fill out the form with the travel information, expenses, destination, etc. at the bottom I specify a manager who needs to approve my request. I have two command buttons one to save the record and the other to submit. What I would like to happen is that when the person filling out the form clicks the submit button an email generates to the manager they've selected with a link of that specific form in the message body.Then when the manager receives the link they go in open the form approve it and then when the manager clicks the submit button I would like it to send the form to our financial personnel.

Displaying Form Records Created By User And Specific To A Date

Jul 24, 2005

Hi,

I was wondering how difficult it would be to do the following:

1. A user opens up a form.
2. The user uses a combo box to select his/her name.
3. There is a date combo box on the form and by default, it is set to today's date. So when the user selects his/her name, the records for today are displayed. Changing the date will show only the records for the date shown.
4. The user will have the ability to add and delete records specific to the criteria chosen in the text boxes. Adding new records will only add records for the date chosen in the combo box. E.g. if he/she adds a record for today, it will only be seen when today's date is selected.

Will a subform have to be used for something like this? Or could it be done with one form using filters?

Any thoughts and/or approaches on this would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.

General :: One User At A Time - Prevent Multiple Users Accessing The Database

Feb 13, 2015

Twice a year, a database of mine is accessed and put too use by various staff within a time range of 1 week. the database is on a shared drive and in a location which can be accessed by all.

The staff access the database from different workstations and in some instances at the same time.

This has only led to issues in the database being copied and then confusing staff on what database to click on thus i have 2 databases which i then have to sift through and copy/paste into the correct one.

I want to know the best way i can:

1) Prevent multiple users accessing the database at a time.
2) making a copy of the original and typing into a separate database.

Limit User's Security Permission With Code

Sep 15, 2005

My db is secured using Access security but now find myself needing to code a little security work around if possible.

I have a form that has a subform. On the subform is a field named "Comments". The subform security only lets a particular group write to the fields it contains (including "Comments"). I have a new user that I need to allow to write to "Comments" but not to any of the other fields on the subform. I could make another subform with "Comments" only field and redo my security so that the original group can write to both subforms and new user can only write to "Comments" subform but I think it might be easier to code in that the new user is only allowed to write to field "Comments" in the existing subform. Every user logs into the db so I can get the user ID.

Is it possible to do this?

Setfocus On Repeating Item/accessing A Specific Item

Aug 18, 2006

I have a form that simply lists the items:
DEPARTMENT_NBR and DEPARTMENT_NAME

In the table: DEPARTMENT_TBL

When I edit the field DEPARTMENT_NBR and it is in error (must be between 01 and 99) I want to put out a message in a MSGBOX and SetFocus back on the DEPARTMENT_NBR.

I coded the MSGBOX with vbokonly and then DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus, but after the message displays and enter is hit for the ok the cursor jumps to the DEPARTMENT_NAME on the current line. Is there a way to get the SetFocus to work properly on repeating items like this? I can never seem to get them to perform the same as they do on non-repeating items.

Thanks for your help.

HERE'S THE EXACT CODE:
If IsNumeric(DEPARTMENT_NBR) = False Then
If DEPARTMENT_NBR <> "00" Then
MsgBox "DEPARTMENT NUMBER must between 01 and 99.", vbOKOnly
DEPARTMENT_NBR.SetFocus
GoTo DEPARTMENT_NBR_EXIT (exits the paragraph skipping other checks)
End If
End If

Also, is there a way to look at a specific item in a list like that? IE. I want to reference the 3rd row's DEPARTMENT_NBR. Thanks.

Restrict User Access To Specific Records

Oct 12, 2005

I have a staff database in my office which holds, amongst other things a list of staff holiday taken. Presently the staff have no access to view holidays because they will also be able to view other employees details. What I need to do is enable members of staff to see their own holiday, but no others and Im really not sure how to go about it.

I have a workgroup in place; so each user has their own login/password.

Any ideas would be gratefully received.

Thanks,
Adam.

Hi all - I'd like to create a menu for 3 different users so the menus will pop up when each respective user opens the database. I'd use a switchboard but I want more freedom in my form. Is there a way to do this in access? For example, I'd like Menu 1 to automatically open when USER 1 logs on, Menu 2 to automatically open when USER 2 logs on, and so on. I've set up security already and know how to use the startup, Display Form/Page item under tools. I just need to open different menus depending on the user. Any ideas would be of great help. Thanks much.
