Guys, I work for a Fortune 50 company. They want an absolute fool proof way
of no one getting to someone elses data based on the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. This

them. The ONLY way to accomplish this is through separate and distinct
databases. I would certainly appreciate someone answering my original
question. Thanks in advance.
