I'm wondering which technique will result in a faster process, Method
A or Method B (or some other method I haven't figured out!)
When a user opens my database, the user must login with name/password.
I store that value as UserID(as an integer based on the user's
UniqueID in tblEmployees) and it is used throughout the application.
In my Access2000 .mdb applications, I have just created Public UserID
as integer in a module.
Will it be faster to call UserID in my Access2000 Stored Procedures
as:
Method A
UserID is stored as an unbound field on my siginin form:
Forms!frmSigninName.UserID
Method B
UserID is a custom property and called like this:
Function getUserID() As Integer
Dim myID
myID = Application.CurrentProject.Properties("UserID")
getUserID = myID
End Function
The goal is to find the fastest and safest way (one not affected by
code breaks, such as Public UserID as integer in a module.)
Any help is appreciated.

Why not use Access' builtin user and group security? Then the user is
available at all times with the CurrentUser function.

If speed is the issue then I WOULD use the public/global approach -
I'm pretty sure that there's no real significant performance
difference with either of your two approaches - especially since it's
only a single field called a limited number of times. la*************@hotmail.com (Lauren Quantrell) wrote in message news:<47**************************@posting.google. com>...

I am not using Access' builtin security for numerous administrative reasons.
Without it, CurrentUser returns simply "admin", which is of course not satisfactory.
