Timing inactivity

[Guest]

is it possible to time a persons inactivity and boot them off a databse after
a certain amount of time?

Yes.

The most basic way to do this is to create an invisible form at startup that
stays open all the time. Use the Form's Timer event.

Thanks Fred, I'll check this out tonight and give it a try.

This is nice but how does it get around the inactivity part. I only want the
database to boot them if they have not done anything for a certain amount of
time

The On Timer event will fire when the designated time expires. You can close
the database. When the user does something, reset the timer.
