Views the access rights of the users set up in a project.

At the top of the window, a message is displayed indicating if or not Data Access Control (DAC) is Active or Inactive.
The window is divided into two tabs:
The User Rights tab displays the DACs that apply to the current user. The tab displays the Access Control Rights (ACRs) that apply to the current user, and the Roles and Scopes that define each ACR.
The Element Access tab is used to view which attributes of an element you have access to, and the DAC restrictions on operations that you can carry out on the element. Where restrictions apply, the appropriate error message is listed alongside the attribute or operation.
On entry, the name of the current element is automatically displayed in the text field.
Attribute names are displayed in the top list, along with the level of access you have to each of the selected element's attributes.
Operations are displayed in the bottom list, along with the restrictions that are applied to you when carrying out these operations on the selected element.
To view the data access restrictions for another element, either type the name of this element in the text field, or make the element the current element. When the required element is entered or selected, click CE.
Note:
The Query Data Access Control window is for information only. Data Access Control can only be switched on and off
and changed in the ADMIN module.
