Editing value list privileges
Privilege sets can limit access to value lists in a file. For a file, you can set:
• Privileges for all value lists: you can permit viewing, editing, and deleting of value lists, or
viewing only.
• Custom privileges for individual value lists: for each value list, you can set whether it is
modifiable, view only, or accessible.
To edit value list privileges:
1. Start editing a new or existing privilege set.
Display the Edit Privilege Set dialog box. See Creating new privilege sets or Editing existing
privilege sets.
2. To set privileges for all value lists in the file, for Value Lists, choose All modifiable, All
view only, or All no access. These options allow or prohibit the following:
• All modifiable allows viewing and modifying value lists, duplicating and deleting value
lists, and creating new value lists.
• All view only allows viewing of existing value lists only. Prohibits opening the Manage
Value Lists dialog box in order to create or edit value lists.
