Well, I can't go into specifics because I don't know too much about database programming, but I can take a stab at what you'll need to do in order to make it work.

1. Search the database for the entered user name's record. If no match, display a "wrong username" error message. If there is a match:
2. Read that whole user name/password record from the database.
3. Compare the password field to the entered password. If no match, display a "wrong password" error message. If there is a match:
4. Method is complete.

Did you get your simple password system working? I have a similar task: I want certain passwords to open form A and certain passwords to open form B.\

Can you help?
