Form security

[Golfinray]

I have built a menu form for my contruction managers. The menu has 4 command
buttons for area A, four for area b, four for area c, and four for area d
managers. There are 16 command buttons in all. I would like all mangers to be
able to VIEW any form but only the area a manager to be able to edit or add
to his forms. Same with b,c, and d. Is there a way to do this right at the
form level? Thanks, so much!!!

Rather than trying to get Access Security to do somthing its not really
designed to do, why not just do it properly.
Download some of the security papers listed in this forum and read them
until you get the concepts of User Groups and Users fully understood.
Then use Group Level security. "A" Managers get full access to A stuff, and
view only for "B" "C" and "D". Same for the rest.
