Hello,

I am constructing a database using Access 2000, and wanted to know if I can
make a form "read-only". If so, how do I do that? I am new to access
software.

Also is there a code I can cut and paste, to execute my multiselect list
box? I am having a bit of trouble finding one.

Thank you.

The OpenForm method has an argument that will open a form read only or if
you always want it to be read only you can just set the RecordSourceType
property to Snapshot in design view of the form.
 
Hi,

Go to your form, press F4 to go to the properties, and make sure that "Form"
is selected in the dropdown list at the top of the properties.

Then set the following (Form) properties to "No"
AllowEdits, AllowDeletions, AllowAdditions.
