Is section access script ran everytime when opening the file?

Hi,

     According to my IT QV team's documentation, the script within section access is supposed to be executed every time the user opens the document in access point. But I'm running some tests and it doesn't seem to work like that.

     I have 2 qvw, one is just creating a qvd with access table details (ACCESS,NTNAME,SAKEY)

     In second book, in section access script I'm loading from the QVD. It is keeping the same privileges as originally refreshed, if I modify the QVD, the permissions do not change in the other book.

     Any advice? Thanks in advance!

No, the script will not be executed again when opening.

But it will authenticate the user when opening and apply for example data reduction based on the user (based on the section access tables defined in the script, but not reloaded).
