Bug Report: Assign Course - Parents seeing other students

Bug issue: Parents seeing more than just their assigned students when assigning students to courses.

When looking at the menu item "assign courses", some students that are NOT assigned to the parent are showing on the option list. After looking at the database - what is likely happening is as follows:

a. Parent account with ID = u62_parent_id=62 is seeing all student accounts assigned to 62 PLUS
b. All students with a parent that whose ID also contains a "62" within the ID will show as well.

For Example:

Parent with ID of 62 will also see students with following params set in Joomla user table: u627_parent_id=627, u626_parent_id=626, etc.

I believe this was fixed for R0.5 but is somehow back...

Thanks for looking into.

Change:
By:
Please test and let us know if this works fine.

That did it - fixed.

Thanks!
