Hello,
I am trying to use a protected file for a Database Driven selection on a dropdown box, is this allowed or do i have to load the options through rpg?

Thank you

Adopted authority will not work for the database driven widgets.

Thank you

I probably should have been a little more thorough in my response.

The reason that adopted authority won't work is that our framework launches a separate job that runs the SQL required to retrieve the results for the widget. This job will have it's library list and user set up to match the main process but, since it's no longer running under the original call stack, it will not carry over the adopted authority.
