Most of the Filemaker applications automatically put you into the layout where data can be changed. I know I can set up the file as read only based on user id. Is this the best way or is there a better way to set up layouts where the initial screen is read only (Only viewing) and then those who have permission can make changes to the data?
 
What version are you using?

In FileMaker 10v3 Advanced it is
File->Manage->Accounts & Privileges

From there you can set layout access by user account.
