I have been getting an excellent response out of this group, so let me
first thank all of you who have answered by e-mail or postings.  It's
nice to know that when I have questions, I can always ask a group of
experts.  Now to the question:

The hypercard application that I am writting will be distributed to many
people, and we want to limit the privileges each person can have.  I know
there is a card with user levels, but, can't anybody just change his user
level?
How is this userlevel assigned, and when does a person get asked his
username?
Also, can we make it impossible for some people to print out a report of
the stacks?  I was thinking of hiding the menuBar, but is there another way?
How easy is it to run an application built in 1.2.5 in the new 2.X ?

Thanks a lot,
