Sync with tablet read only
Is it possible to set up my partner’s tablet to sync with my MD but READ ONLY? I.e. partner can see accounts and transactions but cannot add, modify or delete transactions?

Hello,
No, this is not possible. You'll have to explain to them not to modify anything.

Hmm. What would happen if I gave my partner only read access to the DropBox MD folder?
Would MD crash?
I assume my partner could then make changes to the local copy, but my MD would not be compromised, right?
Thanks,

Hi Hans,
I'm sorry to disappoint you but as Ethan and Stuart already mentioned on this thread, ''read only" is not an option when syncing a data file, as it defeats the purpose of syncing.
In your case, you should probably share a backup file rather than sync your actual data set, perhaps.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions or need more assistance.
