Freeware versions of the TUsers Security Component
TUsersSTD v1.0
TUsersSTD (STanDard version) is a security component designed for applications with few security needs such as password protection only and menu items protection. With a few lines of code and a little configuration at design-time, your application is ready to control users permissions and restrict some resources of your program depending on the permission level granted to the user.
