Creating new privilege sets

You can create as many privilege sets as you need to define the types of access you want to permit to a file. Then you can assign each privilege set to one or more accounts.

To create a new privilege set:

1.	Choose File menu > Manage > Security.

The Manage Security dialog box appears. It initially shows the Accounts tab, which lists the accounts defined for this file.

2.	Click the Privilege Sets tab.

3.	Click New.

The Edit Privilege Set dialog box appears. By default, each privilege set option is set to its most restrictive setting.

4.	Enter a name and description (optional) for the privilege set.

5.	Manage the privileges for the privilege set. See:

•	Editing record access privileges

•	Editing layouts privileges

•	Editing value list privileges

•	Editing scripts privileges

•	Editing extended privileges for a privilege set

•	Editing other privileges
