How to Make a Form Query only?

Hi all,
This is one of the common requirement.They are many ways of doing this like formpersonalization ,Cutom.plland others ..the easiest way to do it is by passing the parameter QUERY_ONLY=YES..
But it doesn't gurantee all the forms will behave as expected because the form should be coded to make it work for this..not all standard forms have this..
In HRMS Forms case there is another concept called task flow by which we can make the form read only..(i will provide a article on this at some other time)..
Steps:
1.Check the form which need ot be made as query only.
2.Go to the menu to which it is attached and the get the user function name of the form
3.query the function from application developer(resp)-->application-->function

4.query the function you have to modify
5.Create a new function logically same as the old one (attach the same form)
6.Go to Form tab in the functions window.

7.Enter QUERY_ONLY="YES" in the parameters window
8.Attach the new view only function to the required menu..
Using Form Personalization:

My requrirement is to not all the users to add new responsibilities or new user with responsibilities..it is only allowed for certain people..lets see this sceniro implementation throught form personalization
1.Go to the form which needs to be personalized
2.Open the personalization screen

3.create a rule at when new form instance level


make update,delete,insert allowed property to false to the block you want to remove the funcionaltiy
4.save the record..
if you want to give access to only one user sysadmin
create one rule to remove access by making delete ,insert and update allowed false..
Create another rule at new form instance level , context-> user and sysadmin and then make insert ,delete,update allowed true..
These two rules will make that only sysadmin to attach new responsibilities..
