hi!
since we can't make an exe with forms/menus...we need to make shortcut on the desktop of client machines to invoke the mmx.
but, this shortcut requires the connection parameters (username/password@database) as arguments.
so, the connection parameters are exposed at client side.
would anyone pls suggest the method to hide these parameters?
waiting for ur reply...
thnx in advance,
gangadhar

Hi Gangadhar (OmegaCube ?)
I think it is not possible to hide the logon info.
but what you can do is give a dummy userid/passwd in the shortcut and in the Pre-Logon Trigger of your Main form use the LOGON buildin to connect to the actual userid.
Hope this might help you
Thanks

hi jeslie!
thnx for ur suggestion..
i tried this in the shortcut.
C:ORANTBINF50RUN32.EXE conn.fmx foo/foo@foo
but, LOGON built-in is not a valid procedure in pre-logon trigger.so, i put the foll. code in ON-LOGON trigger..
/*
* ON-LOGON trigger
*/
declare
un varchar2(80);
pw varchar2(80);
cn varchar2(80);
begin
un := 'actual_un' ;
pw := 'actual_pw';
cn := 'actual_cn';
LOGON(un,pw||'@'||cn);
end;
/*
* end of trigger
*/
thnx a lot for the help.
hav fun,
Ganga (bluebyte)
