I want to create a logon - witch several list and other fields should be dependent on - f.eks. the list should only show the records that is relevant to who ever is loged on.

Thanks
 
Vague question however check out help for "CurrentUser()":
If CurrentUser() = "Gord" Then
Application.Quit
End if
In queries: in the criteria for perhaps employee "first name": CurrentUser()

You could get very fancy with this working instead from workgroup information but I think this is a good start for you! Gord

Form my experience, using individuals (CurrentUser))) requires to much efort. Essientially, each access needs to crosschecked to the individual. When the number of individuals gets to be more than a VERY few, the maintenance overhead is more than what is required to set up the workgroup security and assign individuals to groups.

Tanks - I think

I don't even know how to make a logon. And then how to refer to it.
