How to Make a database - read only...

[TrailblazerLS]

We have a read-only version of a database that they give to certain people. The save btn as well as some other things have limited functionality.
Problem is now there are two versions to keep in sync.
How do any of you deal with a situation such as this.
And setting the property to read only is not good enough.
