User Management for an Internet Access Control Application - User Management Module

(Page 2 of 4 )

The user management module has the following options:

• Add new user

• Change user password

• View user profile (not implemented)

The “add new user” option allows an administrator to add a new staff member to the database. This procedure essentially sends the new staff member's name, username, password and access level to the database. The code below demonstrates how this is achieved:

unit newUser;

interface

uses

Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms,

Dialogs, StdCtrls, Buttons, DB, ADODB;

type

TForm6 = class(TForm)

edname: TEdit;

StaticText1: TStaticText;

StaticText2: TStaticText;

StaticText3: TStaticText;

StaticText4: TStaticText;

StaticText5: TStaticText;

cb: TComboBox;

edupass2: TEdit;

edupass: TEdit;

eduname: TEdit;

BitBtn1: TBitBtn;

BitBtn2: TBitBtn;

ado1: TADOTable;

procedure BitBtn1Click(Sender: TObject);

procedure FormShow(Sender: TObject);

procedure ado1AfterPost(DataSet: TDataSet);

private

{ Private declarations }

public

{ Public declarations }

end;

var

Form6: TForm6;

implementation

uses Logon;

{$R *.dfm}

procedure TForm6.BitBtn1Click(Sender: TObject);

begin

if (edname.Text = '') OR (eduname.Text = '') OR (edupass.Text = '') OR (edupass2.Text = '') OR (edupass.Text <> edupass2.Text) then begin

messagedlg('Please ensure that you fill in all the fields and that the password fields are the same.',mtInformation,[mbOK],0);

exit;

end

else begin

ado1.TableName:='users';

ado1.Active := True;

ado1.Insert;

ado1.FieldByName('name').AsString := edname.Text;

ado1.FieldByName('username').AsString :=eduname.text;

ado1.FieldByName('password').AsString := edupass.text;

ado1.FieldByName('Alevel').AsString :=cb.Text;

ado1.Post;

end;

end;

procedure TForm6.FormShow(Sender: TObject);

begin

form3.q.close;

form3.q.SQL.Text:='SELECT * from Levels';

form3.q.Open;

while not form3.q.Eof do begin

cb.Items.Add(form3.q.fieldbyname('level').AsString);

form3.q.Next;

end;

end;

procedure TForm6.ado1AfterPost(DataSet: TDataSet);

begin

messagedlg(edname.Text + ' has now been created.',mtinformation,[mbOK],0);

end;

end.
