Re: Role based authorization

Hi Derek,

Thanks for the information,

Shouldn't this be part of GNUe? For real world applications this is a real 
must. The first thing I do when I start a project is defining a menu 
structure, and an authorization scheme, based on groups of employees.

Do you still have the coding you used to create the navigator file? Perhaps I 
can modify it to be a part of GNUe (No promise)
