I sent the first one to the wrong address. I have a question that I am hoping someone on the discussion list can help me with. I work with a structure that I will draw a picture of (a picture is worth a thousand words?). Division | | __________________________________|___________________________________ | | | | | | | | | | Dept. 1 Dept. 2 Dept. 3 Dept. 4 Dept. 5 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Multiple Multiple Multiple Multiple Multiple Accounts Accounts Accounts Accounts Accounts What I am looking to do (and I am not a technical person) is this. We want to have LOGIN.COM files or something similiar that reside in the directory of the Division level and each of the department levels. Then when one of the users login the LOGIN.COM will be executed on the division level first, the department level next, and if it exists, the account level next. With this kind of setup a division could placed information in the LOGIN.COM that is only necessary for that division. This might include messages, important information, etc. Everyone in that division would execute the LOGIN.COM file when they login. The departments could also do the same thing with each person in that department executing the division and then the departmental LOGIN.COM. My question is can this been done without any changes to VMS? Has anyone implemented something similar? Many thanks in advance as this is becomming a political issue and I hope to head it off. Thanks again. Michael Walters MWalters@UWYO.BITNET
