i have a read only list and i would like to add a column with edit permissions. So Far i haven't found anything concerning column level permission so can we somewhow achieve this? I can't code tho so i have no idea how to do this oob.
I thought using infopath and just hide everything and let the columns that can be edited. But my list won't be read only anymore. I could hide the quick edit option via list settings, but is it secure enough to not allow users to change any other columns?
One way to keep your list contents read-only and have your comments column would be to create a new list with a lookup column to the original list and the contents column you wish to add. If you mark the lookup column with the "Enforce unique values" you can ensure a 1-to-1 relationship.
hope this helps. d.
