User1 to access Tab1 and Tab 2 only

User2 to access Tab 3 only

User3 to access Tab 4 only

Thanks.

You don't need to do anything in the script at all.

It hides the tabs - that means it works

It hides the tabs from you because you're are not allowing yourself to see the tabs.  Add your own Windows ID in each condition:

wildmatch(OSUser(), '*User1*', '*MyWindowsID*')

wildmatch(OSUser(), '*User2*', '*MyWindowsID*')

Your windows id is the login you type (or select) to open Windows.  Maybe TPaulos or something like that.

To test with one or two tabs - just don't use "conditional" show sheet on all other tabs.

Why do you need password?  If your only purpose is to hide tabs for certain users, you don't need section access, hence no password.

Hi,

How are they gonna access the Tabs, they're Hidden?

Because i'm acting as Admin and Also User before Handing the Model to Users.

My last response to this discussion, sorry...

I thought the whole purpose of this is to allow users to see some tabs and don't see the other tabs.  If a tab is hidden from a user, user doesn't have access to it.

To test as a different user - you have to open Windows as this user.  There is no other way, sorry.  If you always open Windows as yourself, you see what is allowed to you, that is probably everything.
