I think I will adopt this solution...
I was just wandering if there was a cleaner solution.

This is a complex story.... I designed a GUI framework that automatically hides menu items, buttons and various user interface elements using the oracle roles that have been granted to each user. the problem is that who designed the final application abused of this feature and instead of defining 10-20 distinct roles, based on the professional figures that live within our customer's companies (roles like "secretary", "manager", "call_center" and the like) defined an huge amount of little roles like "can_edit_customer_data", "can_read_incoming_calls"...

I personally don't agree with this use that has been done of my delphi components: it is too complicated, both for us to mantain/test and for the end user to be used. I have complained enough about it... Now I am just waiting them to strike their face on the problem...

Thanks for your reply,
