Alan,

I think he asks for a hiden field option in the table controlled by role
grants (I suppose it because he mentions views).

i.e. if the role has no access to the view and it issue a select * the
fields doesn't appear or appear as nulls, don't know... but I am just
speculating on what I think he wants... :-)

see you !
