Remarks

Rights required to modify a group

To modify a group (other than the group of the current user), you must have the rights to view users (hRightsSeeUser constant). Otherwise, HModifyGroup will return False and an "Unknown group" error message will appear.

To modify the name of a group, you must have the rights to see the users (hRightsSeeUser constant) and the rights to manage the users (hRightsManageUser constant).

Note: These constants are used with HInfoServerRights and HModifyServerRights.

HModifyDatabaseRights: is used to grant rights on a database.
HModifyFileRights: is used to grant rights on a data file.
HModifyServerRights: is used to grant rights on a server.
