I have downloaded your demo and am tinkering with it. It looks very good I might add..
Regarding the Login setup I have a couple of questions.

  1. Is it possible to let a user register but not grant any additional access into the site until an Admin activates the account?

    a. If yes, how is this done?
  2. If question 1a is a yes, then

    (scenerio - Company ABC has five employees. In January employee A logs into the site and posts data. Then in Feb, employee B logs in and posts data to the same account. In March employee C, well you get the idea. Is there a simple method for the user to register and then allow the admin to associate these employees to the same CompanyID so that all data is associated correctly?
    I'm a rookie, learning ASP as I go, so please type slow..<wink>

Hi,

  1. you may do it using Group permissions on Security tab / Advanced. For example create 2 groups: first default group with View/Export permissions and other with Add/Edit/View/Export. When new user passes registration, he gets into default group, and then admin moves his in other group by changing his GroupID.
    2.Use mode Users can see and edit their own data. on Security tab / Advanced. Choose CompanyID as OwnerID field.
