Pls. also remember to do this: In the option setting, set urd files to be open writable. You can find and additional helpful hint here:

I want to add a private item, so I create a new item with this "private" template. All this does on my system is to create an item with a link to the "private" URD if it is not open. Same if it is open. There is no place to add data so it is purely a link to the "private" URD. The new item does not transfer to the other URD or anything. So when you say you can have security at an item level, what do you mean by this? How do you add a "private" item? If it was me, I would go to the private URD & add my item, then switch back to my general URD. If I was searching for a private item, I could probably search from the gen'l URD & I would have to offer my password to be able to get to the file. When you say you have protection even at item level, I'm not sure I understand. I'm not sure how this is different from having a file w a password except that it only opens when I am looking for a specific "private" item. Is that it? Sorry to keep this thread going but I want to be sure I get it & I appreciate your patience. Last edited by janrif; 03-07-2007 at 09:19 AM. |

Are you sure when you imported the urd file you did not get a link effect instead of a store effect? You have to be sure that you physically store the password protected database into the main database. In UR, when you store a file you can see the word [Store] after the InfoItem name on the Item Details tab. If you do it the right way then you'll see "Click here to open stored document" in blue on the Item Details pane. You have to click on it in order to open your password protected file. Pls. remember that you have to set urd files to be open writable in tools, Options..., Documents. Last edited by Leoram; 03-07-2007 at 09:55 AM. |

The other thing I notice is that the URL points to the small URD but [b]not[b] to a copy of the small URD. Some of this may have to do with a difference in versions as I am using v3 & you are using v2 (I think) When I create a new item from the 'password' URD it shows up as a "stored" item & I have a link to click for the store (or linked) item. Thank you. |

The problem of "read only" you have might've emerged from the fact that you could probably have the urd file properties set to "read only" before you imported it. In that case you need to go back and do a re-import of the physical file from the explorer (but change the read only condition first, by doing a right-click, properties over the file).
Your point on the URL that you mentioned is irrelevant. In my case I just used a physical copy of my urd and not the original. The URL address can vary depending on what the file was and where the user imported it from. My version is now 3.0 as I upgraded yesterday, but I tested what we are dealing with and everything is OK. If you have Store and also Link is because you already have a copy of the urd file you imported. Once you delete the file from the original place on the disk the link thing will disappear. Hope this one helps . |

Re: Password protection at InfoItem Level (a workaround)
Quote:
The extension 'urd' must one of the extensions in Options | Documents --> extensions that are writeable (see Kinook's post in response to my question on Gen'l Discussion Forum) The end result of this is a nesting of one 'urd' into another. Each 'locked' item created w the 'locked item template' in the master 'urd' creates a separate nested 'urd' that contains the private info. Last edited by janrif; 03-08-2007 at 11:53 AM. |

You mentioned to change icons. I couldn't yet figure out how to do this. You know a way? Regards Eric |

To change the Icon to the left of an item in the Data Explorer-- change the value of the Icon attribute in the Attributes pane.

elorup,
You might want to take a look at this thread: http://www.kinook.com/Forum/showthre...?threadid=1701 if you want to add some variety to the available icons within a UR database. Later, KenA |
