Hi All, I have craeted a discussion board in my sharepoint site. I want to close it such that no one should be able to add my more responses to this but I do not want to delete this. Other than changing permissions is there any other way to do this? Thanks Rahul Rashu

There are two ways to do this: Easy way - Change permissions to Reader for all users. Hard way - Write an event receiver to intercept additions and abort the update. If you feel you want to go the hard way (not recommended), you can start here: http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/Section/Programming-Event-Handling-in-Windows-SharePoint-Services.id-306329.html I trust that answers your question...

I followed the easy way and it worked for me but I really want to have a built in way. Thanks, Rahul Rashu
