Administrator Login Form

The Administrator's Login Form is designed to allow you to protect your program within your company. By enabling the password, only people with permission may have access to the list of customers within your own company. This way sensitive data can stay sensitive. We, ourselves, never have access to or intend to have access to this list, and it is stored in a local copy on your computer in a database that only CreditWatchExpress uses.
