The Access Mode menu function enables or disables write access to the database. Usually, it is always possible to write- and read-access the database. The Access Mode / Read Only menu function prevents the database from being modified. Write transactions that are active while changing from READ/WRITE mode to READ-ONLY mode can terminate their write operations in a regular way.
In exceptional cases, the Nolog Off menu function can be used to cancel write protection for tables loaded with NOLOG. When backing up the serverdb, write protection is automatically cancelled.
