Ok, it took me some time to figure out how to set folder permissions in XPhome (no security tab when I right-click a folder, so I had to boot in safe mode to make the settings) but it solved the problem :-) I now have multiple Windows "Limited account" users with there own TB! account. WHen such a user start TB! he/she only has access to his/her own TB! account. It is also possible to give one Windows user an overview of all TB! accounts by re-defining all TB! accounts used by the various Windows users. Thanks for the suggestion! -- Best regards, Hans ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
