I have very little experience with AS security. I'm looking for some ideas on how to address this problem.
I currently have two workspaces. The first work space contains data used for invoicing etc... I want to set up security on this workspace and it's database.
The second workspace is not using workspace security. I created my own security as each user needs to log in to use the application. I use the login to filter the table used for data entry.
The kink is that the second workspace reads from three tables and writes to another of the tables in the first workspace.
I believe that if I set up security in the first workspace, the second workspace will be denied access to the first workspace.
If that is the case, what would be my options to make this work? I need the second workspace to function seamlessly with the first.
I think I could place the second database into the first workspace. But then it would require a user name and password to be entered twice. What my main objective is to allow certain users limited access to the invoicing application. Maybe I should make my own security login and depending on the user, disable buttons in the main menu? But then I was hoping to encrypt the data files in the invoicing app.
I noticed there is an option to use the windows logon. Has anyone tried that?
TIA,
Ron
