Just to secure the authenticate user is their any provision just to compare with the password for netware login?

Please do not take it otherwise. I have NO INTENSION TO READ the password and it should not be done.

I just would like to put a password form in my project that whenever a user will open the project computer will ask for a password and if it is same with the password for netware login I'll understand that correct user handling my project.

It will help me to replace the username correctly in the username filed of every file securely.

Hope you understand my requirement.

What project i mentioned for username capture, is there any provision for password for executing aforesaid task.
