    Infopath wont open form for read-only users to form Library...help?

    I have what I think should be a fairly simple problem to fix, but I cannot find a way around it.
    I am relatively new to InfoPath and have created a form that is a content type for a form library that people submit their completed forms into.
    However, we want to give 2 types of access to the library...contribute for those filling out the form. (this works fine)
    and read-only for those who need to view the forms, but are not allowed to change them.

    However, when the members of the read-only access group click on the form, it starts to open, but then gives them an error that they do not have sufficient permissions.
    Is there anyway around this? I know if I try to open a form that someone else is already editing, it will allow me to open it in read-only mode...so it seems possible.

    We are using Sharepoint 2010 and InfoPath 2010.

    Any help/directions/references would be GREATLY Appreciated!!

     Best Regards,

    jack

     It sounds like you have form load rules or data connections i.e. connected to a drop down list control. They don't have access to the drop down list data source.
