texte = Dear PCS,I got this far, as you suggested in your message, already... You can see the full WebDNA source code for how this works by looking at MultiGroupChecker and InGroup. If I were you, I'd start by copying MultiGroupChecker to another file named CustomGroupChecker and InGroup to CustomInGroup and Users.db to CustomUsers.db, then start tweaking from there. .I setup a newUsers.db and includes for MutliGroupChck.inc and inGroup.inc and I made another, passwordProtect.inc to validate a userid password when entering a client account area. After that you view a page if you are in the proper group... MutliGroupChck.inc. Set the the security for each page by calling the appropriate include.But I need to know about encrypt below -->> :-)Thanks.RH Prouty rhp@BristolCapital.com > I know the encrypt tags used on these security templates are coded for use > with the Users.db.
