I have created a file called Security_Log and a FORM called
Security_Log. I want my security officers to beable to enter data
records into the Security_log file using the Security_Log Form.
Once an officer enters a data record I want him and the other
officers to beable to see all the records entered by all the
officers. However I DO NOT want any of the officers to beable to
change, edit or delete any recors not even their own. I as
administrator and owner of the file and form will be the only one
able to change, modify or delete any and all records. Is this
possible and if so how is it done. Please I need help.

I design my user interfaces such thaqt I have a continuous view form
that shows a few fields from the form, and put two buttons in the
footer of that form, one lableled "Add New Record", the other "View
selected record". Both open the same form, but in the first case it
tells the form to open in data-entry mode, in the other it opens the
form in read-only.

Form is set to hide the navigation buttons so the only way to get to
a different record is close the form and reopen.

This allows a user to quickly scan the important details, and drill
down when more information is needed..
