Hide data in a field
I have a database that includes information protected by the Privacy Act. I
want to show the field, but with stars in place of the data and a button allowing the data to be viewed with a breif statement indicating the data is protected by the Privacy Act. I aslo need to enact security on this feature so only specific users can access this data. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you. |

Hide data in a field

Specific Users: This all depends on how you determine which users have access. In the Form_Open you could write: if not IsSpecificUser() then Me.myTextbox.InputMask = "Password" Then write a function IsSpecificUser where you decide who has access. The implementation will depend on how you determine this: from the Windows login, from Active Directory, from a custom Users table, from workgroup security, etc.... -Tom.
