  5. If is a Admin, then close Login Form and open a Navigation Form
  6. If is a user then close Login Form and open a Navigation Form, but disable the Admin button on the navigation bar (NavigationButton13.Enabled = False)

    Thanks for your tutorial. I was looking for a long time a kind of tutorial like this that I can apply to my current projects.

    Part of my following project is give access to the Navigation Form’s tabs depending on the department were the user belong. We have 4 departments (D,I,T,G,S) and managers can have access to all of them or some of them and the administrator have access to all of them.

    I’m planning to write the scrip and I just wonder if you can give me some support. Please let me know if a monetary contribution is required.

    Regards,
