Try this,

Create a role "ReadOnly" then
Copy the permission of the super and make Insert, modification and delete permission to blank(means 'no'). Only Read and Execute should be yes.

Now,
To the concerned user attach this role but before attaching this role you have to attach the predefined role called ALL.

Hope this will work.

Thanks Ritesh for the quick response. I could see the role working but one small thing can i restrict him from accessing
1) Object Designer 2) Roles (Means Tools) .

These permission are given from the object type "system". when you open the permission form you can see the last row which says system. You can change this permission according to your requirement.

you can change the system permission to the newly created ReadOnly Role.
