Re: Read Only User

Hi Pete,

Thanks for your links - some useful material here. I like your comment: "The whole process requires planning and forethought not quick fixes". This is exactly not what I've got here! Management tell me "I just need to tick a box to make my Excel spreadsheet read-only" and wonder why I can't just do the same for the database.
