Can I make a Read-Only table or other display of data?

I have already created a way to add new data in my database through a 3-step process.

Now that I have all my methods of entering data set, I am now wondering if there is any way to make a "Read-Only" form or table to view the data, so that when others are using the database to look up information, nothing can be accidently changed.


Thanks.

If you want the entire database to be read only, you can set a command line switch that activates when the mdb is booted up. See this link:

If you just want to have a user form that is read only, then invoke the property sheet for the form and change the recordset type property to snapshot.
