Remove the USERID and PÄSSWORD fields in your SA table, and replace them with a single NTNAME column.

Now enter NTName values in this column in a

DOMAINNAME\ACCOUNTNAME

style to identify the AD accounts of the the users that should have access to your document. Then reload and save.

Remember that in order to let a server reload your document, you should add the service account with ACCESS=ADMIN and blank link values to your Section Access table.

IMPORTANT: Save a copy of your document without Section Access and put it in a safe place. You can easily get locked out of your own document when experimenting with Section Access.

You can disable Section Access by simply putting the Section Access; statement in comments.

For some reason if I use NTNAME access denied.

Example Field: NTNAME = DOMAIN\USERNAME
But if I update with [DOMAIN NAME] get access
Example Field: [DOMAIN NAME] = DOMAIN\USERNAME. --> In this case data redcution is not working. Error.PNG

I'm sorry but I don't understand what you mean.

Please post your Section Access script and example data that you load into the Section Access table.
