4.6.3 Access rights

In the section Access details, the Info page presents a table of the current access rights for each user who may access the object. This table is discussed in section 4.7.

If you are the owner of the object whose Info page is being displayed -- indicated by (*) next to your user name in the Access details table -- the top button bar in the Info page may include the  Change Access  button.

The modification of access rights is discussed in section 4.7. You dont have to change access rights, however, if you only want to prevent accidental modification of a Document, e. g. while you are editing it yourself:

The lock on the Document is indicated by the  View Lock  icon behind its name.

The lock will block the [Edit] or [Replace] actions for this Document by anyone but the owner of the lock. Also [Add Note] and [Modify] are available only to the owner of the lock. A locked Document cannot be  Cut, but any member of the Workspace may  Delete  or  Copy  the Document. A copy of the Document is not locked.

BSCW will send an email to the former owner of the lock and inform her or him of your "unfriendly takeover".
