If I want to make a link to an external ODBC source be a read-only link, can
I do this in Access or do I have to do this on the external data source? I
have a SQLBASE database back-end.
 
It is simpler to create it in the back end by creating a UID that has SELECT
only permission.
Then use that UID to link to the database.
 
Thanks for the reply.
