CCS 2.3.x
ASP MS Access
============
Issue: Restricting Forms Actions to Group Levels.....
Highest Level=9, lowest 1 - I have higher inclusive of lower checked.
I have a page where I want ALL to see the contents - therefore the Restricted is checked off (to make sure user is logged in) but, the groups that can see the page are not - allowing all users to see the page.
I have a record form I want all users to see but, only certain users to be able to update
- User levels lower than 5 can read, insert and update (customers adding their own orders)
- User levels higher than 5 can read, insert, update. (staff adding/updating orders)
- Users at group level 5 should have read-only access only - this is because they are 'inside' users as opposed to customers - outside users
Right now it seems I can set security to allow all users to see the page but, the form doesn't react to the security i've set, it displays the update/submit button to group 5 which should only be presented with the 'cancel' button.
Do I have to ditch the 'higher inclusive of lower' and explicitly indicate that the user group has access to the page to get the form based security to work ? If so, real pain - have to revisit all pages and set access one check mark at a time 
thanks for any help
Kevin

There are many approaches to most things. In this case you could use the After Initialize event to implement record security as described in the main CCS tutorial, just disable various functions based on the GroupID session variable.

yes, as a practice i have been doing that - however, i noticed that CCS had this security feature built in to forms to restrict certain actions based on user login group id......
can you tell me .....
if i set a page to restricted to ensure users login - and have 'higher inclusive of lower' levels checked off in security to make it easy to tag pages as simply restricted.....
Q. am i able to set group level rights to forms on the same page - it doesn't seem to work.
thanks,
kd
