validate login from data in a file

[dbourrut]

I want to do what would be typical in a non-NetTalk Webserver app. So, using example app4, I've added a file (TTUSER) to the dictionary and populated the file with two records.

In the ValidateUpdate 2 End where the example says login checking code should go I have this:
    access:ttuser.open
    TTU:UserId=upper(p_web.getsessionvalue('loc_login'))
    case access:ttuser.fetch(TTU:kUserID)
    of level:notify orof level:fatal
      .
      .
      .
   else

It always takes the "of level:notify orof level:fatal" path regardless of the fact that I'm using a valid lookup value.

Suggestions? Perhaps I don't understand what is required to do what I want to do.

Hi Drew,

After calling
Access:TTuser.Open()
you must call
Access:TTUser.UseFile()

Also don't forget to call
Access:TTUSER.Close()
at the end.
