Re: SQRW shortcut Properties

[Steve Hahn <steve_mieco@HOTMAIL.COM>]

[Psrel]\sqr\sqrw [path]\XXX.sqr DBNAME/USER_NAME/PASSWORD

Just remember, this compromises security in several ways:  1)  It
bypasses PeopleSoft security schemes (Operator security, etc.), and 2)
it also leaves the password on that person's desktop in plain text,
and 3)anyone sitting at the desktop can run this sqr (or any other
with a simple modification). If you just put in DBNAME/USER_NAME and
not the password, then the user will be prompted for the password
before it runs.
