Is it possible to assign user level access from a logon screen where the password only has to be entered once for the logged on session. For instance Admin: Can view and modify all objects and screens. Operator: Can view and modify some objects and screens View only: Can only view screen. The way I have it now the admin has to enter a password every time an oject is modified. Can this be accomplished without adding a bunch of read-only screens?

I have found a solution to my Password problem. I have created a transparent bitmap. From my logon screen I set a tag that makes the bitmap visible (invisible/transparent) this way a view-only user cannot modify any objects that the bitmap covers. I am sure it is not the best way to accomplish this task but it is working.

The only way to do this at this point is to have separate screens accessible when a certain person logs in. You can build screens for each level and make sure the menu that each level has available and the screen change objects on those screens only go to screens for that level.
