hide some tabs from some users

Hi guys,

I am trying to use security to hide some tabs from users as follow:

on the tab properties--> Conditional  i am using:

(Match(Upper(OSUser())

        'na\AlecHarf'

        ) = 0)

and for some reason it is not working

but if i do

(Match(Upper(OSUser())

        'na\SamSmith'

        ) > 0)

then sam is the only one sees the tab.

I could've used the second formula but i have hundreds of users and I am trying to hide the tab from only 3 users

Any suggestions?

Thxs in advance,

Alec

na\AlecHarf is not in uppercase so it won't ever match the output of upper(OSUser())

Try this expression to hide the tab for Alec Charf, Sam Smith and username3:

not match(upper(OSUser()),'NA\ALECHARF','NA\SAMSMITH','NA\USERNAME3')
