Open MS word file in read only mode

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Is there any function module or method to open an MS word file (which is not read only ) in read only mode.

User should only be able to see the document ,he should not be able to make any changes.

Regards,

How are you opening a word document?

Is it possible for you to provide some code for reference?

I am opening the word document using method EXECUTE of class CL_GUI_FRONEND_SERVICES.

But it does not open the document in readonly mode.

Hi,

Where is the document stored? In a content server? In BDS? In a directory?
