Strangely enough - I got both copies at the same time, but then again, I
find it's not unusual to get an answer to a question before I get the
question.

In answer to your query we did a similar thing recently. We setup an entire
account with read only access for ODBC files. The files (VOC entries) had
their own cleaned up dictionaries and pointed to the original data. We
created select only views on these.

We did this in UniData and it does SQL/ODBC differently, but you should be
able to use the same technique of creating a new VOC file entry that points
to the original file.
