I am working on a stack that will be used by a large number of people, some of
whom may be hypercard programmers. I cannot password protect it since I do want
other people to be able to use it. What code should I put into the scripts to
prevent the scripts and buttons and some of the data from being changed (This
stack works like a database - you can add a record and fill it out but may not
change old records)? Send me absolutely anything that may help prevent 
unauthorized access.

I will, of course, summarize the results and post them to the net if they are
sent to me, rather than the network.

Thanks,
Dan Cory
