The Web Security Framework includes an option for a "ulink" value. This is a special character field with up to 40 characters and is typically used to store some identifier from an external table that corresponds to the security record.

See Adding users with a web component or the newer, more complete Registering Web Users in Alpha Anywhere Version 10 for a tutorial. A dialog is very flexible as it allows the developer to link to other tables and create a number of variations.

Once you have gone as far as possible with a Quick Report, you'll want to convert it to a Free Form or Layout Table Report. The Open in Report Editor button on the main toolbar does this when the Quick Report Genie is open. If you want to preserve the Quick Report for future use in the Genie, first press the Save As button on the main toolbar and either accept the generated name or choose a new name.

This example will show how to export the Alpha Anywhere AlphaSports customer table to the Access AlphaSports database.

After you have defined all security parameters, you may build a login component. A login component may include up to 3 "views". All login components have a login view. This includes the fields for entering a user ID and password and may include links to other views. If the security settings allow a user to change his or her password on-line, a second view named "Change Password" is available. This allows you to configure a specific component layout for changing passwords. If the security settings allow the user to recover lost login information, a third view named "Lost Info" is available. This will show various fields that are used to verify the identity of a user and return the requested login information.
