Locking QS Lookup Tables

Post by jneasy »

Hi,

I have a lookup table define that is being used for a number of QS Rule Sets that I want to remain static.

Is it possible to lock these lookup tables in much the same way that the provided Rule Sets have lookup tables are only available to open in view mode? For example the provided AUFIRSTN.TBL

Cheers.

Only by changing the file permissions. You don't have access to the code through which the out-of-the-box files are locked.

Don't forget to lock both the client and server copies of the file(s).

Thanks Ray.

There are a number of developers that have clients installed on their workstations so I wont be able to ensure that client copies are always locked.

I was hoping it might be as simple as setting a "locked" flag on the server side.

Cheers.

Alas, no. However, if the server side copy (and its parent directory) is read-only, they won't be able to provision changed versions.
