HI
    I have a directory that works like this.
The owner of each listing in the directory clicks on a little box 
that appears before their name and info in the directory.
An Enter User Name and Password page is shown ( a simple form, can 
look as you like)
    The imbedded listing number is used to find their data record. The 
input user name and password is compared to the saved versions - if 
they match, an edit form is opened. If not, "Try again".
It works well. No magic.
    p.s. the test looks for a match of a 'master' user name and 
password first. If this is used, the refresh shows the related 
specific user name and password in the input boxes. This provide an 
easy look-up function.
