You'll can create a Users Table then go to Security Tab, switch on username and password from database then set this in User Login Settings...

Sorry, I am obviously missing something, but where is the secutity tab?

My database consists of on table with 16 fields and 130 records.

The users login has been set to thefield surname and password set to the field password.

This works ok because I know my name and password.

None of the other users knows their passwords so I intend placing some html code on the login screen saying soething like enter your surname as your user name then click here and your password will be emailed to the email address held inthe data base.

Once I overcome this hurdle the next will be making the email thing work.

Security tab (screen):

I do not need to register new users as all are in the database, there will never be any new users.

I have a login page using name and password fields from the table

I cannot find how to create a lost password page similar to the image below.

Security tab is after Miscellaneous in application wizard ...
You can choose whether to enable new user reg or not, if you don't just enable dynamic permissions and select the username and pw field that you already have, then enable lost pw reminder and you're done..
