Warning Message

---

The Warning Message item on the Preferences form allows the administrator to set a message that appears when any user logs into Otobase. This can be useful, for example, to comply with regulations to inform users that they are logging onto a confidential database program.

Otobase provides a default message that you can activate, or you can add your own custom message. The final item allows you to remove a message.

To set the default message

From the pop-up menu, select Default Message.
The default message appears for your review.
If you wish to activate this message, select Update.
The message at right will appear the next time a user logs into Otobase.
If you wish to print the message, select Print.

Note: You cannot edit or modify the default message.

To set a custom message

From the pop-up menu, select Custom Message.
A blank text box appears.
Type in a custom warning message.
Select Update to save what you have typed. When you are done, click Finished.
The message appears next time a user logs into Otobase.
If you wish to print the message, select Print.

To remove a message

From the pop-up menu, select No Message.
Select Update.
