Ah. I see what you are after.

How about setting user ids in a particular format - eg prefix each with a unique identifier string: ( SPEC_john1, SPEC_sally2, SPEC_joe1, etc). Then, using a filter in the html.pl file, print only those records where the username starts with the unique string (SPEC_, in that example).

I am not sure (without testing it, or looking back over the code) whether that will work.

Or maybe you could create a hidden field for the Predefined users (you would have to add this yourself, as admin - say "$rec{'Predef'}" ) then using that as the filter in sub_html_record as:

if ($rec{'Predef'}) {
print qq|

html and fields etc.

Perhaps the brains will tell us Smile.

Does any of that make sense?
