I'd say no and no to the questions. I think the workaround that you may want to look into is building a custom web part that shows items regardless of current user's permissions and have the security check done when the user clicks the link (which is a break of usability if you ask me).

At the end of the day I want a method where a user is able to enumerate permissions on an item but not open it. Is this possible using the 2007 API? Have additional micro permission levels been introduced with 2010? Regards, Paul From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Noone Sent: Wednesday, 19 May 2010 1:25 PM To: ozMOSS Subject: View Permissions Hi all, I am trying to create a permission level that will allow someone to VIEW permissions on an item without also being able to open it. Help? Please? I created a custom level called View Permissions which uses Enumerate Permissions and other required permissions. I then gave myself direct permissions to a folder that I could previously not previously see/access. This in itself was not enough to allow me to see the folder. So, in addition to the custom level I have tried applying View Only and Restricted Read. These will let me see the folder but will throw up an Access Denied when selecting the Manage Permissions ECB action. I then tried Read and Approve which both allow me to see the folder and access the Manage Permissions screen in read only view. Great! But they also allow me to open the folder and its contents. :\ Not one of the descriptions against these permission levels appears to be in any way accurate.
