Open Read Only
Open Read Only
(OP)
Is there an option somewhere that ignores the "Do you want to open document(s) read-only?" dialog? If I open multiple parts from PDM that are checked in and all I want to do is view them, I have to click OK for each one. I looked through the options but didn't see it.

I think if you have this checked it mutes that message.

Sounds almost like you are trying to take ownership of something you don't have rights to. If all you are doing is opening a file for viewing it should open with read only access by default.

And TheTick, that option does not ignore the message.
RE: Open Read Only
"Tools --> Options --> System options --> External references --> Open referenced documents with read-only access" only marks as Read Only, the documents that are referenced by the documents-being-opened, not the documents-being-opened themselves.

Maybe it's a PDM setting?
