Returning User Login- Sometimes It's Quicker To Just Ask
Jan 2, 2007
I'm still working on creating that HR Database. I've successfully created the NEW USER logon. Now I'm stuck on getting the "Returning User" verified during logon.
From a simple form with 2 unbound controls, we ask for the allegedly existing UserID and password. The premise is as follows:
There is a query qry_Employees linked to the form in the background. We're not editing anything directly in the query.
1) To Lookup/goto the record with the EmployeeID in the qry_Employees which matches the UserID on the "Returning User" Form.
2) To Check whether the Password "UserPW" provided on the form is the same as the one in the query "qry_Employees.EmpPW" for that EmployeeID/UserID
3) If its the same then send the user to the main screen and apply a FILTER to the qry_Employees.EmployeeID so that records reated to that one EmployeeID are all that's viewable. The filter is important for Privacy Concerns.
I can't seem to get the UserID isolated and the filter on so that only the User with that unique UserID is browsing the related data in the subforms.
I have finished the database application, and now want to make a user login for specific users to run the application (but not to change the internal desgin or data).
How can it be done ? Do I need to split the database first before doing that ? :confused:
i am a new memebr so i want to say hello to everyone, anyways i have created a database in microsoft access and have created a login screen where i have created different users and given them different access rights and permission in using my database, and that all works fine when i log on to the database from where the computer i created all these rights i get a login screen where the user enters the username and pass and then that opens up the database and allows the to view parts of the database which they are allowed to however my problem is this...
it works fine on the computer i created these access using the security (user-level security wizard) feature in microsoft access but when i open the database on a different computer it doesnt bring up a user login screen, meaning it lets anyone access the database etc so what do i do??? please help

I Have a table votes where a user is able to vote for a specific campaign, when the user votes his username and the date and time is logged in the table votes.
After the user voted he is logged out, then displaying the login form for the next user.
At the login form I want to check if a user already voted and if so he should not be able to login again. How can you do this ?
I have created a login form, with a user name and password. It works great. However I need to use the login form for three different command buttons, on my main access form. The same login form will be used but It will need to open three different forms depending on what command button was selected on the main page.
I open main page, PID- click on buildings the login form pops up and I enter the correct username and password the building doc opens. Got it?? The same process for each, I would like to know how is this possible? How do I change the differnt documet that opends according to the command button that has been pushed? :confused: Thanks in advance
Sorry if this has been covered before but I couldn't find a post on it anywhere.
I have a login form but am not sure where to go with it now. I want the "Login" button to look up the username in the table "users" and check the password with the one submitted in the form. After this has been authorised I have also created field "permissions" in the users table and I would like that permission to be assigned to the users session.
I am trying to create a multi user login form for my Access 2010 database. I will have 2 different types of users (administrator and staff). The administrator will be able to see all tables and forms and edit/ add to them. The staff will only be able to view a switchboard form and 2 forms (as well as using combo boxes to look up specific records). However, I don't want the staff to be able to view the tables or edit anything.
I created a form with an "add record" and "delete record" button. I need to create a simple login form for 2 users (user1 and admin1) that will disable able the "delete record" button when the user, "user1" logs in. Whenever the user, "admin1" logs in, then both "add record" and "delete record" buttons are enabled.
I currently have a network shared database. I setup permissions but only one PC shows a login screen when it starts up. The other just logins to "Admin" account which I have taken permissions away from and therefore cannot make any DB changes.
I want to print different versions of a report depending on on the user login id "quserid" which I have on a login form "authorise".
As a simple example I have tried using a single user with the syntax shown below but get an error message "Object required". I suspect the problem is in the way I identidfied the quserid field. Can anyone please advise me on this. Regards Peter
If AUTHORISE.quserid = "ADMIN" Then Dim stDocName As String
where I can find VBA for (Tracking User LogIn/LogOut) I have tried researching to no avail.I just need a simple code to track users logging date & time in and out of my DB.When they click on the icon on the desktop id opens the DB to login screen with username & password then into the DB.
Into the form named: Administratorsfrm, I added a textbox defined as usertxt and also a textbox named passwordtxt as well as a button named logincmd.
The user defined is the Network user and this is added automatically to the usertxt field everytime when I open the Administratorsfrm form. To do this I use the next code:
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim wshNetwork As Object 'New wshNetwork Set wshNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network") Me.Usertxt = wshNetwork.UserName Set wshNetwork = Nothing End Sub
I would like that the user types his/her password (Network password or Unlocking computer) and after this could Login to the database application. I mean, the user will type his password and then the event should compare the password typed with the network password or unlocking password and if this is correct should open the database application (Main Menu Form: Mainfrm)
how to display the user's record or database after he/she login in on the system. Currently I have a database where in the user enters his username and password. But the I dont know how can I make his records display after login.
Is there a quicker way to enter in say 5 entries into a table where they only have one variable differing. There are at least 10 variables that stay the same for each entry with only one changing over the entries. What would be the best way to do this?
hi.. i have a database stored on my main computer. all pcs on the network have windows xp.the database is stored in a shared folder.. and at the moment.. everyone on the network can open the database.. but not at the same time..basically if i have the database open.. my colleague on the pc next to me has to wait till i close it.so what i am asking is can someone direct me to a simple tutorial or some reading material..that introduces the methods needed to allow multiple pcs to access a single database with or without a login system.i imagine there will be certain read/write and locking issues.. but i really need it.thanks.
I have recently started a project and become stuck already. I have a login form created that works (code below). What i want to do is allow access to the users of 1-7 in table (level of access) which will determine which page they view after logging in. IE if the have Access in table "Users" as "1" then when they log in the will see a form thats called L1. Same with 2,3,4,5,6 & 7.
Code: Private Sub LoginButton_Click() If IsNull(Me.LoginUsernameText) Then MsgBox "Please Enter Username", vbInformation, "Username Required"
how i can get a current user from a custom login form CurrentUser() this function always return a system user name admin as default. In my login schema i have a Hidden splash form that have a unbound field that holds user name from custom login form after login a dashboard execute and also display user name on dashboard according to user login ,this working fine for mine. Actually i want to make a currentuser stamp in every entry when a record is entered in database.
I would like to put a text box (user) and checkbox (check100) on a form, that when the checkbox is not checked the value in Gender switches. In an AfterUpdate I would use a code to capture the user login.
Code: Private Sub Check100_AfterUpdate() Me.User = Environ("UserName") If Me.check100 = 0 AND Me.Gender.Value = "Male" THEN Me.Gender.Value = "Female" ElseIf Me.check100 = 0 AND Me.Gender.Value = "Female" Then Me.Gender.Value = "male" End If End Sub
I've managed to create a multi-user login form with macro.
user1 is able to login with his password and user2 is able to login with his password. latter I noticed that user1 is able to login with any password in the table and use his previous password to login even after changing it.
I need to know the procedure or event code for user login form at opening.
I am working on database which is almost done and i defined tables for users with passwords.
I need to know how i can assign Login Form to be appear on opening of database no other person than listed users should be able to enter or open database without password, to enforce this i made a login form.
