How do we protect StationGlobals from accidental modifications in TestStand?

Sometimes, it's very important .

Hey Jacky,

So there are a couple options for resticting StationGlobal Editing-

1. You can change user privilages under the User Manager. There is a setting for each user under Privileges>>Debug>>EditStationGlobals. Set that to false and that user cannot edit the Station Globals.

2. All the Station Globals are stored in a .ini file called StationGlobals.ini this file is located in the TestStand 3.x\Cfg directory. You can change Windows settings to make this file editable by certain users.

3. You can right click on a Station Global in the Station Globals window and go to Properties Then click on Advanced. Set the flag that makes that Global non-editable. WARNING!!! If you do set this then the only way to edit the global is by deleting it from the .ini file.
