Hi, i have a database where i would like guests to have logins and to see only sertain fields pertaining to that user guest login.

I haven't figured it out yet.
I know how to deal with different database "manipulators", when users can see only the data they have inputted(as usual) but what about guests?
example:
I have 12 programms that have to evaluate, each of the program providers is given a login to see how he/she has been evaluated during presentation(data are entered by 1 admin only)
i am bit lost here
thanks

Seems to me you are treating 'guests' as 'users' - Just set up these 'guests' as users with their own GroupID as 'guests' - defining what they can see/edit.
You COULD use programming to make fields not visible to guests, but MUCH easier to make another view/page for these guest users with only the fields you want them to see.
I'm doing a very similar thing.
