Hi
I have downloaded the DDBMAN everything is working fine but I am not able to give the permissions to the user only to change his record , IF I set $auth_modify_own = o it gives the user to delete ,or modify anybody's record IF I set $auth_modify_own = 1 It will not allow the user to change his record also !!How do I solve the Problem ???
Can anyone help me Please !!
Thank you

There's a great tutorial on JPDeni's web site which includes a section on setting permissions.

This should help you in setting your permissions.

Hope this helps Smile

If you want users to be able to modify their own records, you must have a field for the Userid. And you must set the $auth_user_field variable to the number of that field.

This is the only thing I can figure out that might be your problem without seeing your .cfg file.

Hi,
Thank you very much LoisC & JPDeni for replying me back. As per your reply I went ahead & corrected my cfg file where I had removed The UserID & I had changed according to my needs . Then I figured out that is the one which tracks the user record & reentered into my cfg file. Now it is working fine . I appereciate your wonderful help.
Thank you
Susan
