OK, next question: the files I need to allow access to for each of my user groups are PDF files. They do not display in the Access Pages Manager. Do I need to create a page for each user group, with a list of links to that group's PDF files? And if so, will the PDF files be accessible by typing in the path in the browser address bar? If so, any user can access them by bypassing the "protected" links page and they are not protected.
What do you suggest I do in this situation?

<5 mins later> Aaaaaggghhhh... I just found this:

I have never used Digital File Pro. I hate to think that this application (Security Assist) just cannot do what I need, after all that. I'll look into it... it can't be that hard...
