The information in this article applies to:

This article was previously published under Q100129 Novice: Requires knowledge of the user interface on single-user computers.
SYMPTOMS
Even though a form's AllowEditing property is set to Unavailable, you
can edit, add, or delete records in the form.
RESOLUTION
To set a form so that records cannot be edited, set the DefaultEditing
property to Read Only and the AllowEditing property to Unavailable.
MORE INFORMATION
The form's DefaultEditing property determines whether you can modify
records in the form. You can set the DefaultEditing property to Read
Only, Data Entry, or Allow Edits.
The AllowEditing property on a form determines whether the Allow
Editing command on the Records menu is available when you open the
form. If the Allow Editing command is available, you can override the
form's DefaultEditing property.
STATUS
This behavior no longer occurs in Microsoft Access version 7.0. The
DefaultEditing and AllowEditing properties have been replaced by Allow
Edits, Allow Additons, and Allow Deletions.
REFERENCES
