Need help for Append Only feature in Access 2007

[Song Su]

I created a sample database with 1 table which as 1 field memo type and
append only turned on.

I put this field on a form. Still, I can edit or delete the content of this
memo field. I'm not getting 'append only' feature.

Hi Song,

On your form check the properties under Data and make sure Allow Edits is set
to Yes.

Song Su,
The append only property does not prevent a user from editing or
deleting the contents of the field. It enables a user to view the
history of the contents of the field. After making some changes to
the data in the field, right click and choose Show Column history for
the shortcut menu.

I hope this helps.
