Could anyone tell me if it is possible to write some code into the "Onclick" Event procedure that requires a password before the user can access a command Button or Ctrl Tab? Thanks for any help
|
|
here's an example of one way to do it, as
Private Sub Command0_Click()
If InputBox("enter the password") = "something" Then <do whatever the command button is supposed to do here> Else MsgBox "sorry, Charlie" End If
End Sub

Thanks for that Tina. How can I add the code you supplied to the existing procedure that currently reads as follows:
Private Sub ENTRE_WEEKLY_PLANNED_GIVING_Click() On Error GoTo Err_ENTRE_WEEKLY_PLANNED_GIVING_Click
Dim stDocName As String
stDocName = "PLANNED GIVING WEEKLY" DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit
Exit_ENTRE_WEEKLY_PLANNED_GIVING_Click: Exit Sub
Err_ENTRE_WEEKLY_PLANNED_GIVING_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_ENTRE_WEEKLY_PLANNED_GIVING_Click End Sub

Roger,
Although the code provided by tina may appear to work, nothing stops users from running the query called "PLANNED GIVING WEEKLY" from the database window. The code behind this button simply calls a query and opens it on the screen for users to edit.
If you open the database window and click on the Queries tab, you'll find a query called "PLANNED GIVING WEEKLY", if you double-click it, it will open for you to edit. Nothing stops users from opening it from there. I'm assuming you took care of this "back door".

Thanks for that Ray, understood, but can you tell me how I incorporate the code Tina supplied into my existing "Onclick" event procedure as mentioned in my previous reply. Also is it possible to have a similar procedure for opening a specific page within a "Ctrl Tab"?
Thanks in advance

[Quoted Text] > is it possible to have a similar procedure for > opening a specific page within a "Ctrl Tab"?
well, pages in a tab control don't "open" and "close", you merely navigate from one to another. here's one way to stop the uninvited user from moving to a "protected" tab, as
Private Sub TabCtl0_Change()
If Me!TabCtl0 = 1 Then If Not InputBox("enter password") = "something" Then Me!TabCtl0 = 0 MsgBox "sorry, Charlie" End If End If
End Sub
in the above example, the name of the tab control is TabCtl. each page in a tab control has an index value - the first page's index value is 0, the second page's value is 1, etc. the "value" of the tab control is the index value of the currently selected tab page. so the above code says: if the user clicks on the second tab page (which has an index value of 1), an input box will open for the password to be entered; if the password is not correct, the first tab page is selected instead; if the password IS correct, the second tab page is selected as the user intended.
personally, i prefer to not show things to users that they can't actually get at - it just causes frustration. i'd be more likely to hide the "password-protected" page, and make it visible only when the correct password is provided. to do that, you can use a command button, something along the lines of
Private Sub Command0_Click()
If InputBox("enter the password") = "something" Then Me!TabPageName.Visible = True Else MsgBox "sorry, Charlie" End If
End Sub

Thanks again Tina. The Command button is working fine thanks to your expertise. However, I tried the code in the Tab Control as follows: ("Onclick event")
Private Sub Planned_Giving_Information_Change() If Me!Planned_Giving_Information = 6 Then If Not InputBox("Please enter Password") = "roger" Then Me!Householder_1 = 0 MsgBox "Sorry, Incorrect Password" End If End If End Sub
where Planned_Giving_Information is the name and has the value of 6. Householder_1 has the value of 0. Obviously, I have got it wrong & would appreciate your guidance again and thank you for your patience.
