Hi All,
In the desktop shortcut I added the /ro switch to the command line
\\Homf6\Vol2\LifeComp\ComonDbs\AVA\Apps\AvaXP.mdb /ro
and the db opens but I can still change data that is displayed on a
form.
So, what am I missing?? If the "/ro" switch is suppose to open the db
as read-only then why is it letting me change data thru a opened form.
thanks
bobh.

Is it bound data on the form?

I think I read something about modifying your shortcuts to point to the
actual Access program (not the database file) and have the database
file location as the parameter, and the command line options.

Yep...
I did that
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office10\MSACCESS.EXE"
\\Homf6\Vol2\LifeComp\ComonDbs*\AVA\Apps\AvaXP.mdb /ro
and even thou I get the message saying the 'database is read-only' I
can still change data that's displayed in a bound form.
I'm wondering if it has something to do with the fact that it's a split
database(front-end/back-end)

Is it actually changing the underlying data in the AvaXP.mdb database?
Or are you saying the data is from a different source than AvaXP.mdb?

Yes it is......
I load the form, select a policy nbr, change a value, close the form.
go to database window view, tables tab, directly open the table, find
the polcy nbr, check the field I changed via the form and it's changed
to the value I entered on the form.

Bobh,
The RO will apply to the objects in the FE only. Since the data is in a
different db it can be changed. Now try and change the design of a form
and you won't be able to. Or if there is a local table...

and I was hoping that would not be the answer but, I'll just have to go
and change all the forms to open as read-only in the front-end........
thanks
