Hello, My environment is VS2005 using VB. We are trying to display our customer's inventory data on a website. We want to provide user ids and password to our customers so that they can use them as they login to the website. After login to our website with valid user id and password, each customer can check his/her own inventory data. This is 'READ-ONLY' page. However, if admin people login to the inventory page, all customers data will be displayed and admin people are able to change the data. That's what we want to do. By using GridView Control, I think we can display/edit/delete data. But how/where do I set 'READ-ONLY' for non-admin people and all privilages for admin people? I was adivsed to check "Roles Class" and "Membership Class", but not sure what that means. I very appreciate your advice on this. Regards, Shiho

Based on the users role, you can set the read only attribute of your controls to prevent edits.
