GOAL:
How to restrict GUI Results users from deleting or updating data records?

Windows 32 Intel

CAUSE:
By default, all users can add, update, and delete records from a table using a Results query in the form view.
FIX:
Results provides several features that regulate who can perform record addition, deletion or updating activities:
Choose Query -> Site Admin -> Feature Security option to set user permissions for these features and to determine which users can manipulate a database using the form view of a Results query.
The Results security mechanism reconfigures the application interface for each user based upon that user's permissions. The interface reconfiguration occurs when the user starts Results. When the user does not have permission to use a feature, Results configures the application interface accordingly.
