What is that? I *think* what would be commonly referred to as session variables.

By using both the UserID and AccessLevel. Pages are marked with a "restrict access" to a certain level or type. Generally the pages that are restricted now are form pages. So there is also a grabbing of the session varaible , in this case the userid.

Okay that makes sense I will try that. Though I'd imagine the SQL will need to be different since I could be dealing with hundreds, thousanda etc of records.
