User Database Access

With the User Database Access function, you can control which database(s) a specific user can access and use. You would only use this function if a user should have access to only certain databases; otherwise a user automatically has access to all databases as long as the Allow Database Change check box is selected in Maintain Users for the user name.

Upon accessing this function, select the User you want from the User Code list.

Data Field Information

Prompt	Response	Req	Len
User Code	This field is information only and reflects the User Code that you selected.		10
Allow Database	Select the check boxes for the database number(s) that you want the selected user to have access to.		80

For information on how to change databases, see Desktop Basics. If the user tries to access a database that they do not have access to use, a message displays stating, 'Your user code does not permit change to this database.'

NOTE: This restriction check does not occur when the user signs on. It only occurs when the user attempts to change databases. Therefore, when the user logs in, it automatically signs on to the database stored in the Database Number field in Maintain Users for their user name.
