Is it possible to make forms, or parts of form read only so that anyone can
see the information entered, but can't change the information entered.


For a Form, set the Allow Edits property (and the Allow Deletes and Allow
Additions, if appropriate) to No; for individual controls on a form (i.e. you
want the user to edit some fields but not others), set the control's Enabled
field to No. If you don't like the greyed out look, you can also set the
Locked property to Yes.
