Login page for citect/SCADA

Hi, i want to create a login page for the user to login, can anyone help me with it? Thanks.

Not specific to citech. Login pages are easily created by taking the user to a window/page where all they can do it enter a userid and/or password into data boxes. when they choose accept then you validate their entry either against a database of plc register. If successful they are taken to the main menu. Failure takes them to a try again message window. To be robust, an idle timer must take the user back to the login screen.

Ya. That is what i want to do in SCADA/Citect, can you teach me how to do it? Maybe step by step e.g. what page/function/tags should i create?

Search Citect on-line Help for a function called "LoginForm()" This function will display apop-up that will allow a user to enter their name and password. It will return a 0 if login is OK.

Description Displays a form in which a user can log in to the CitectHMI/SCADA system by entering their name and password. If the login is correct, the user is logged into the CitectHMI/SCADA system with the area(s) and privilege(s) assigned to them in the Users database. This function is a blocking function. It will block the calling Cicode task until the operation is complete. Return Value 0 (zero) if successful, otherwise an error is returned.

The help page does not state how to create a login page. For example in VB.net, to create a login page, i create a page with buttons and functions added. Is this the same for Citect?
