About enabling record-level access
You can set individual record access for each table. For example, the privilege set can limit the
ability to:
1 View, edit, create, or delete all or certain records within each table.
1 Access or modify certain fields within each table.
You can only set record access privileges for tables defined in the current file. If the file contains
relationships to tables in other files that you want to protect, you need to create accounts and
privilege sets in the other files to protect those tables.
