      Is there a way to make FMP start at a different layout depending on 
the password that they enter the database under?  I want our data entry 
people to get right to their screen, but I want supervisors to get a 
menu layout that they use to select which reports to print.  
      I absolutely don't want the data entry people to be faced with the
menu screen.  They pull up several databases during the day.  (Identical
templates, different data.)  And that would be an added inconvienance.  I
also don't want the data entry people faced with the menu, as they shouldn't
ever need to print reports.

Thanks much,
