I'm thinking this may be a quick solution, but i am very new to SharePoint... so apologies if i use the wrong terms etcI have a situation whereby i wish to store documents in a document library - some of the documents are not to be visible to all (in fact only one person - person x)The reason for this is that many people need to see the document properties - but are not allowed to see the content of the document.Initially i thought this would be easy, apply the viewers permissions to everyone but person x and member permissions to person xHowever, when i do this the document disappears from the document library for all but person x.Is there a way that i can keep all documents and properties visible in the document library but prevent users from opening these documents?ThanksA

Hi, Unfortunately, this is not possible as Viewers can open documents Best Regards, Ammar MCT http://ahmed-ammar.blogspot.com Posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
