To achieve this, Taylor needs to use an authorization scheme that limits access to the report and form to application administrators.

Option A: Select authentication of Administrator Only: This option does not limit access to specific pages, but rather limits access to the entire application for users who are not administrators. Therefore, it is not the correct option for this requirement.

Option B: Add a before header validation: A before header validation is used to validate user input before a page is rendered. It is not used to limit access to pages, so this option is not correct for this requirement.

Option C: Add a before header process: A before header process is used to perform some action before a page is rendered. It is not used to limit access to pages, so this option is not correct for this requirement.

Option D: Select authorization scheme of Administration Rights: This is the correct option for Taylor's requirement. An authorization scheme specifies who is authorized to access a specific page. An "Administration Rights" authorization scheme would limit access to only those users who have been granted administrative privileges within the application. Taylor can create an authorization scheme with this setting and then apply it to the report and form pages to limit access to application administrators only.

Therefore, the correct answer is D: Select authorization scheme of Administration Rights.
