Access When rules - Completing the New or Save As form

Create an Access When rule by selecting Access When from the Security category.

An Access When rule has two key parts:

Field

Applies To

Select the class to which this Access When condition applies.

For Access When rules that restrict the opening, modification, or deletion of rules, use Rule- as the Applies To class. GENTJ 3/31/05 B-13040

When Name

Enter a name for this rule. Begin the name with a letter and use only alphanumeric, ampersand, and dash characters.

Tip As a best practice, start the name with a capital letter.

Don't enter either of the keywords True or False as the When Name.
