VS_Login() Forces a user to provide a correct password CHG
Description:
VS_Login() should be used to ensure the user is who he says he is.
VS_Login() will prompt the user for his initials and password (as
defined in SECURITY.DBF). If the user cannot provide a proper
password, it is your job as the programmer to abort your program, etc.
Syntax:
l_Success = VS_Login()
Pass:
Nothing
Return:
l_Success is a logical expression that will be set to .T. if the
user successfully entered valid initialsand their associated password,
otherwise it will be .F.
Notes:
The use of VS_Login() is mandatory if you plan to use the VS_ChkAuth()
function.
Example:
IF .NOT. VS_Login()
VS_DIE("Invalid Login Attempt. Please call D.P. Services!")
ENDIF
...
Usage:
VS_Login() provides you (the programmer) with a security measure for
your application.
