Topic: Read Only files (1 of 2), Read 21 times Conf: Startup, File Open, Exit From: Walt Pattinson Date: Saturday, November 20, 2004 05:18 PM Is there a setting that allows read-only files to be edited but not saved? I'm always working with RO files and many a time I want to delete extraneous lines so I can see the 'guts' of the file, but don't expect to save it. Thanks

You could perform a {FILE, Save as} to save the RO file into a temp file and then edit that. Ted.
