About the predefined privilege sets
Every new database file contains three predefined privilege sets.
1 Full Access: permits accessing and changing everything in the file
1 Data Entry Only: permits viewing and entering of data only
1 Read-Only Access: permits viewing but not changing data
You cannot change or delete these predefined privilege sets, except to enable
or disable extended privileges for them. You can either use them as is, or
duplicate them and then modify the duplicate copies.
The following table summarizes the properties of these privilege sets.
