Can you create a "read-only" link to another data file, such as FoxPro? I want to be able to give my users the ability to see the information in the linked tables, but have no possiblilty to change them. Is MS Access security the only way to do this?

Thanks,
Janet

If you are using a security file (.mdw) for user access, you can define access to each object (including the linked tables) to any level you want including read only. Larry De Laruelle
