It sounds so trivial. What's the problem? Did you try to design it? All you need is some thinking and common sense. And basic knowledge of programming.

In database , create a column named login_status, and when the operator logged in , set the flag to 1 or else 0. based on the flag value, u can enable or disable the controls.

If depends on your decision. Do you have data other than authentication data? If you have enough justification to have the database, have it. If you only need authentication data, just a file would do.

By the way, do you understand this basic and most important thing: you should not store passwords anywhere? Never store passwords. Do you know how?

How should I understand this: "and you are in windows platform or web?" Me? How about your?
