Specifies whether a table is read-only for this application.
Syntax:
property ReadOnly: Boolean;
Description:
Use the ReadOnly property to prevent users from updating, inserting, or deleting data in the table. By default, ReadOnly is False, meaning users can potentially alter a table's data.
Even if ReadOnly is False, users may not be able to modify or add data to a table. Other factors, such as insufficient SQL privileges for the application or its current user may prevent successful alterations.
To guarantee that users cannot modify or add data to a table:
- Set the Active property to False.
- Set ReadOnly to True.
When ReadOnly is True, the table's CanModify property is False.
