How to have a parameter text file

[apsf68]

Hi,

Is it possible to have a text file with parameters that msaccess should read on open?
Example: when openning my db, it loads a form that will show the invoices to pay in the next 3 days. I would like to have this number of days in a text file, and my querie should read it from there. Doing it this way, each user can choose the number of days that should be shown.
Thanks.

Yes, it is. What have you tried?

Seems like an extreme way of doing this! Why not simply have a utility table in your database to store this info? The user logs in and Access checks his logon against the records in the table and acts accordingly.
