Hi Edhy

yes of course

I did following :

In AppMain.Vb

[codesnippet]
Private Shared Sub ShowLoginAndInitMainForm(ByVal e As ShowLoginAndInitFormEventArgs)

e.ShowMainForm = True

End Sub

[/codesnippet]

and in the mainform i do something like

[codesnippet]

Private Sub MKSBaseAppWithSecurity_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Me.Visible = False
Dim ll_success_login As Boolean = False

Login.LoginFormType = GetType(MKSBaseLoginForm)

#If DEBUG Then
Login.SetLoggedInUser("supervisor", "mks", "")
ll_success_login = True
#Else
ll_success_login = Login.ShowLoginAndAuthUser(True)
#End If

If ll_success_login Then
then do something like enable all controls
Else
then do something like disable all controls
End If

Me.Visible = True

End Sub
[/codesnippet]

that all
and it works fine....

Hi Rainer,

I really don't know, but that is the purpose of Session Lock feature, to lock out the application until a valid user gets access to it again.

For that you will have to create your own Login form, which is very easy to do (see documentation) and add that functionality. Keep in mind that Session Lock will leave forms in their current state (ex: unsaved data, etc.) so you may also check for those things before closing any open form. There has been a couple of discussion about this in the forum, so search for the "Session Lock".
