    Hello Mr. Rost. I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for presenting this topic.
    I have been waiting for this presentation for a long time.
    I consider you my teacher, because I have learned a lot from you.
    Unfortunately, I live in Iran and because of the embargo, I cannot buy your courses.
    Once again, thank you for all your kindness and cares.

    I did this thing to my project, but to make it more secure, I hashed(encrypt) the password and the Username so that "if" someone can bypass my database and get accessed to the UserT, the password and Username field is hashed or encrypt. I did the Hash password twice, there's a Level 1 Hash then Level 2 Hash.
    Its like Password ⏩ Level 1 Hash ⏩ and the Level 1 Hash, Hash it again to Level 2 Hash and store it to the Password field in the UserT. just to make it secure. I also hashed the Username so that the bypasser have no Idea what is going on. 🤣🤣 But, thank you, my VBA code is more like a ancient text to read, so difficult to understand and it has more than 20 lines of code, unlike to your VBA Code is straightforward and easy to understand. 🤗😍 Can't wait for the Part 2 and 3. 🔥🥰

    Hi Richard, your videos are always interesting, every time I see your videos I always learn some little properties to add to my little databases. Thanks again to you and your team! I'm sorry I don't know English but with subtitles you can understand perfectly.Many greetings from Italy!
    Ciao Richard, sempre interessanti i tuoi video, ogni volta che vedo i tuoi video imparo sempre qualche piccola proprietà da aggiungere ai miei database. Grazie ancora a te al tuo team! Mi dispiace non sapere l'inglese ma con i sottotitoli si riesce a capire perfettamente. Tanti saluti dall'Italia

    Richard, can you tie these accounts to the ability to enter design view/etc.? In the sense of having an account for developers, and another account for end users?

    There's an issue if you have a correct user but blank password it will let you logon. I fixed the code by adding an or IsNull(Password) to the password if statement 13:35

    Would it be a waste to pull, with an open recordset in vba, the record for the user and check for the id and password?

    Hi Mr. Rost. One question.
    the code correct is that:
    If IsNull(TempVars("Username")) Then TempVars("Username") = "Nobody"
    MainMenuLbl.Caption = TempVars("Username")
    but if I have the second label that I want use in the same form, I just copy code? like that:
    example
    If IsNull(TempVars("Job")) Then TempVars("Job") = "Nobody"
    JobLbl.Caption = TempVars("Job")
    thanks

  • @willmiranda9710

    Is there a way to create a message box that pops up when your mouse hovers of any label providing the details of the information require for that field.

    Very good, love it but it would be better if users could set their own passwords and if the admin got an alert for 3 failed attempts.

    I would like to implement this so I can do two things:
    1- Open diferent forms or dashboards according to different users;
    2- Use this user ID globally to register table changes and operations, by user.
    Is it possible to carry on this "UserID" throughout other functions and subs, including private subs?

      Absolutely it is. 599cd.com/SecuritySeminar

    Hello Mr Rost. Thank you so much for the tutorial. I want to ask that how do I add a "Hello" before the TempVars("Username")? Like I want to show "Hello XXX" in the main menu caption. Thank you.

    • @austinmyers106
      @austinmyers106 Рік тому +1

      you could do something like this
      MainMenuLabel.Caption = "Hello" & " " & TempVars("Username")
      still learning access, but i think that would work

    Hi, how do we handle the password field being blank, It seems that the user can login with no password and I don't want that

    • @599CD
      @599CD  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, that's something I really didn't think about when I was recording the video. I just assumed that everyone would know that you need to check for a blank password. Just throw an IsNull in there somewhere. 599cd.com/IsNull. Remember, these videos are more about giving you ideas and showing you what's possible. These are not meant to be finished, complete solutions.

    Thank you Richard.
    The code is not working properly because the user can logon without password I did'nt know why but i resolved the issue bye changing the code to:
    Private Sub LogonBtn_Click()
    Dim ID As Long, Pw As String

    ID = Nz(DLookup("UserID", "UserT", "Username=""" & Username & """"), 0)
    If ID = 0 Then
    MsgBox "User not found"
    Quit
    End If

    Pw = Nz(DLookup("Password", "UserT", "UserID=" & ID), "")
    If Pw = Password Then
    TempVars("Username") = Username.Value
    DoCmd.OpenForm "MainMenuF"
    DoCmd.Close acForm, Me.Name, acSaveYes
    Else
    MsgBox "Incorect password"
    Quit

    End If




    End Sub
