SSAE 16 Certification (GRX)

[Jose Lerebours]

As far as the password at the menu level, I can suggest using filePro
scripts or code to develop your own menus and running "system" commands to
execute whatever you need ...

Version control, well, it can get hairy if you have a bunch of developers
working on the same application and changing the same routines.  There are
off the shelf apps that may be used for this but I really cannot suggest
one  :-(  I personally am in the habit of saving the processing tables
using filename.myname.date-time-stamp; this is not really full proof since
you may skip doing so and not practical if you have multiple developers
snooping around at the same time.

I think I have a filePro based menu system that can be easily configured to
satisfy your password level needs, let me know if you wish to have a copy.
This routine was once published by Laura shortly after I wrote it years ago
...  Whats need about this menu system is that it is stackable (you can see
menu pop onto of each other) and it is 100% database configurable and 100%
filePro.  I wrote it in UNIX based but should not be difficult to transfer
to WIN
