It's easy to allow users to control the data in their 'personal' database records, not only on a record-by-record basis, but on a field-by-field basis.Your PIN number/updating/bonus point scenario entails nothing more than setting up a special database or two - and relate them to each other using standard WebDNA techniques. It takes a little time to define in advance exactly what you want and need, but it's a very simple, straightforward application of WebDNA technology.Sincerely, Ken Grome WebDNA Solutions http://www.hui.net/dna/webdna.html Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
