<QUOTE>
I'm trying to find some information on the usage of certain stored procedure executables. I'm hoping to use them for an interface that allows a user to define access permissions for groups of menu items, windows, reports, etc...



I found the following but can't seem to find any documentation for their usage:-

     Repos...Access

     Repos...GetAccessPermit

     Repos...SetAccessPermit

     Repos...SetUpdatePermit



Any help would be apprewciated very much.

<QUOTE>AFAIK these functions are for the security in the development system. We were told by tech support to write our own security system for our endusers.



The security system we wrote is very extensive and permits a software administrator to allow/disallow access and/or update priviledges to every window in our entire system on a user-by-user basis. We have nearly 1000 entry forms.

<QUOTE>These programs are all called by the Repository function and should not be called externally.



Repository( 'ACCESS',....) reads in a repository item.

Repository( 'GETACCESSPERMIT',.....) determines if the user has access to this item.

Repository( 'SETACCESSPERMIT',.....) sets the access permissions.

Repository( 'SETUPDATEPERMIT',.....) sets the update permissions.



You can view the last fiew in the entity properties window (click the access and update buttons).  If you capture an engine log as you make modifications, you can see what they do.



Essentially, these are repository functions and only work on items called with and through the repository functions.
