Hello,
I know how to open a file as read only using the "open" dialog box i.e the arrow on the open button allows you to select to open it as read only
Is there a way to do this from my documents. i.e. I want to open someone else's file to do some testing etc on it. I normally have the "mydocuments" window open (in real life it is the shared drive but it looks the same) and want to open it as read only from there (so I dont mess up there file). They havent set it to prompt for read only but I want to open it as read only nonetheless
(could I have fitted the phrase read-only into this thread any more!!!)
Cheers
Phil
