Good Afternoon,

Having upgraded my Access front end to .accdb format, I discovered that Microsoft have dropped the function Workgroup Administrator and from what I have read it wasn't really a good solution to keeping a database secure.

The database I look after, has an SQL backend with a user table.

In my wisdom, I thought I would attempt to create a logon screen which would prompt a user name and password and give access accordingly or not as the case may be.

I have been able to generate code that opens a specific Form, once the right credentials have been entered.

However, I want a specific form to open depending on the group the person has been assigned to (held in the Users Table).

Private Sub btnLogin_Click()
Dim strCBOpw As String
Dim strPW As String

strCBOpw = Me.cboUserName.Column(1)
strPassword = Me.txtEnteredpw

If strCBOpw = strPW Then
MsgBox "Login Successful"
DoCmd.OpenForm "Main - Admin"
Else
MsgBox "Login Unsuccesslful"
End If

End Sub

Help? :banghead:
