I am creating a task list database for multiple users where tasks will be assigned to specific people to complete (I will call that person the "responsible lead"). The task originator and responsible lead fields will be drop down menus of defined names. My question is this: how do I design this so that there is a login/ password required when the database is opened, and based on the login entered, that user will only see those task items that they either originated or have been assigned to complete as responsible lead? For example, let's say there are 100 tasks in the entire database and "Bob Jones" is assigned the responsible lead on 10 of them and "Bob Jones" was the originator of another 20. "Bob Jones" would log in and only see those 30 tasks that are associated with him. I plan to have all the tasks in the database in 1 table and the users will add/ edit/ update the task through a form. I am a little rusty in Access - my last database was written about 8 years ago so I am looking for a direction to start. Thank you so much.
