Hi. I am creating an Action Item Database that will be located on a Sharepoint portal so multiple users can access and I'd like each user to have a login/ password to 1) keep unauthorized users out of the database and 2) limit what users can see. This login/ security should ideally work so that user "Bob Smith" logs in with his assigned login/ password and he will only view/edit/ run reports for those Action Items that he has generated (field named "GeneratedBy") or have been assigned to complete ("ResponsibleLead") which are both fields in table "tbl_ActionItems". I can not tie the security levels to a users network login; this has to be security within the database. Any suggestions as to how to do this? I don't necessarily need specific code at this point so much as I need a logical starting point for setting this up. Any pointers/ suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
