              Sorry I hit the send button early.

then hit the connect button which then validates the data with that in the table.

Am I going about this all wrong? Is their a better way to do this? How should I validate the data, can I use the Validate built-in? Lastly, is there a way to encrypt the Password record in the table?

any and all suggestions, comments, or tips welcome.
