How do I allow new users to see Past instances of Publications.

I need to allow new users to see past instances of Publications, i.e. instances they weren't subscribed to. The only way I seem to be able to do it is to make them Administrators. There are Publication Rights called "View objects" and "View document instances" but they don't seem to do what I need. "Full Control" doesn't work either.

I guess the key question is, what right do administrators have that allows them to see all instances of a publication and how do I give that right to ordinary users?

Hi Robert,

have you tried to give your users also the "View document" and "View document instances" rights on the original documents (reports) which are contained in the publication?

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it but it didn't work. The user had no rights whatsoever to the original report and they can still view the instance after they've subscribed, so it must be a right assocaited with the Publication, not the original report.
