I want to create an app that has a user/password login.

But, I need for only the username/password table to be editable by the "dataowner" in other words I want the user to be able to edit their own username and password, but I want them to be able to edit all of the other data in the app.
Appreciate the help

Hi,
you can use Advanced Security mode for this purpose.

  1. Select your username/password table on Datasource table tab in PHPRunner
  2. Go forward to Security tab
  3. Check off Create login page, select Username and password from database, select your login/password table, username and password fields
  4. Click Advancedbutton
  5. Select Users can see and edit their own data only, select the same field in two comboboxes below. This field must be a primary key for username/password table or the username field.
  6. Click OK, return to Datasource tabletab and proceed with other tables.

    This mode will affect only your username/password table

I'll give that a try. I'm still trying to get used to the interface.
Thanks

You might need to stare at it for awhile, and try a few things, but it works for me.

It seems rock solid at this point.
