How to make Jasper report visible to User "A" only Not "B" which is created by User "A" as jasper user

I am using JasperReports Server 6.2.x to create reports and Dashboards. I am a Jasper user "A" having ROLE_USER ACCESS. I have created new report(in user level only) named "Y" based on my existing report "X" with Input given. The "Y" report should be visible to only the User "A" not the other jasper users. i.e. The Report which i have created and saved newly based on existing reports should be visible only to me.
How to achieve this in JR Server 6.2?
For every group you need additionally add another ROLE, e.g. ROLE_Nagarajan. Then add the role to your (and only your) user.
NOTE: Do not remove the standard role ROLE_USER on the user which gets the new role. It is needed for the server to work properly.
On the newly created report, deny any access from ROLE_USER and allow access from ROLE_Nagarajan.
Now only the user assigned to this role can see and access the newly created report.
If working with folders, you can assign those rights to a folder. Then everything stored in the folder will be only accessible by you.

Query Active Directory Username from login, to match a Name stored in another database

I am developing an application in Asp.net using Active Directory to authenticate users. I have been asked to create a timesheet and project management application. The application should allow managers to; select a user,assign a task and show their personal information.
To do this I will need to connect to one of their databases that holds all the relevant data.
What I have done so far is create a modal with a dropdownlist and a connection string to the database needed. The dropdownlist allows you to select a name,a task, task department and task description. I would like it to bind the selected data into a second grid view on their personal profile page.
My problem is that it needs to match the username stored in Active directory when they login, to the name selected from the database in the dropdownlist.
I am lost on how this can be done, I really hope that this makes sense I may have got lost in the woods on this!! I am new to AD.
Attached Image gives you an idea on the dropdownlist and data to bind to the gridview

How do I detect whether a SharePoint calendar item has been changed in Outlook or via the browser?

I have a SharePoint calendar which users can connect to and view/edit in Outlook. I want to be able to create a workflow that is fired when an item is changed or updated and then use an If statement to determine whether the change was made in Outlook or via the user's browser. Is this even possible? I cannot use a code based solution (much as I would like to) as I do not have access to use one.
Having scoured the net, it would appear not. The only way that I have used before, but it is clunky, is to create a field that can only be edited in SharePoint and an identical table that holds the previous version. The workflow can detect if the SharePoint only field has changed in relation to previous value held in the other table, and use this to direct to SharePoint only or Outlook only code as required.

Sharepoint 2010 populate dropdown list with site users

I have a small problem that I need to deal with. I have to create a form in SharePoint Designer 2010 with two fields: User name and Group. These are dropdown lists from which the user can select user and group and save the user's ID and the group's ID in a SQL table. The problem is I do not know how to populate the list with the information needed: Users names, based on their IDs and Site groups, based on their IDs, all from the current site. Do you have ideas?
This is not something you can achieve through SharePoint Designer. SharePoint Designer is made with Power Users in mind. What you are looking for is more of a developer task. As such, you would need to use Visual Studio.

Setting Security Levels in Access 2007

I have created a split database in Access 2007 and need to set user level security. I don't want the users to have access to any of the tables or queries etc. I've created a form so when the database is opened it automatically opens where the user can choose an application to run. How would I go about setting the security levels for each user?
I found the below links using Google. Bit sarcy but it would always be my first port of call without further info or details in a given question showing research already done.
