Is there a way to lock a surface to protect it from being edited?

Long time no talk, Paul!

As for your question, what version are we talking about, and is it C3D or
LDT?

Hi Dennis,

I'm asking about How to lock a surface in LDT 2007 (this is the LDT group). I am still fumbling with Civil 3d.

How thing going at Stock? Is Don still driving everyone crazy?

Don's retired. *yay* We have a person by the name of Dan Ehlmann, PLS,
running the survey dept. now (as of February). As for your LDT 2007
question, sorry, we're still using 2004!! Perhaps Don Reichle can answer
your question when he pops on here. 🙂

Just move it to a Folder where only you (and some trusted others) have Write
and Delete access grafp.

Too easy!

Of course it would help to pass the word around also. And let folks know
that the only reason this is being done is to "protect" the finished
product. ;0)

Thanks for the tips. To let it be known... I am trying to protect the surface from being inadvertently edited by myself. I have a project with multiple surces and I some get confused which surface I should be editing.
