Read Only Database Access

Am I making this up that there is a parameter you can supply in the target for the icon? Just like database, server name, company, etc. I could have sworn I've seen this, but can't find it in the Installation Guide anywhere.

Don't really want to create separate read only roles for everything, but I will if I have to.

NAV 5.0 SP1, SQL 2005

You can only open the native database as read only, not a SQL database.

in my opinion, you can only open the native database as read only.
On SQL is there no fin.exe property. but you can set if directly on sql ;-)

You can use Database Snapshots in SQL 2005 as an alternative.
