Disable(lock) an object based on user login

[#1]

Hi All,

I want to disable an object based on the logged in user.

For users logged in I am using section access.

Basically I am using a textbox with image and added two actions of set variable and Activate sheet.

I want to disable the textbox when a particular users get logged in.

How can I achieve this?? Could anyone help me on this??

Thanks,

Shailesh

Text box right click->Layout tab-> Show conditional: Expression like:  =QvUser()<>'UserName'

Hi.

Right Click on text box -->Layout --> Conditional

and write below code

If(osuser()='Doamin\User',1,0)

Then this will be only visible to user you specify above.

Looks that you need to take the list of users first from the User table and then use some macros to get the current logged UserID and then locking .

You can use OSUser() in the conditional show of the text-box.

OSUser() returns DOMAIN\USERNAME.

Hi,

In Layout Conditional property you may write If(USER='ABC',1,0)

I think this should work for you.

Hi tresesco,

By doing that the textbox is hiding from that user.

I want to display the text box and user cannot be click on it.

I don't think that can be done.

Well, in that case put a condition in your action, like:

=If(QvUser()<>'UserName', 'SheetID')    // for activating sheet action

Do similarly for variable setting action as well.
