I just added the latest Form and List module. 5.1.3

I can add records and I can edit records. 

The LIST  shows up with the Edit icon and I can go in and EDIT the form( record) . 

But I just cannot figure out how to make the FORM (record)  show up in Display mode, for all other Users, and thus they would have a DISPLAY ICON and  not EDIT ICON, (actually I would like both icons)

If I make FORM and LIST   X Edit Mode not allowed , I see the list of records, in the  LIST part .. but there is no DISPLAY icon to get to the actual record in the FORM , so I cannot see the whole record.

What I want - It would be nice if users could go in and either EDIT  the record if they had this permisiion, or DISPLAY  the record ( In display mode they should be able to use email fields, download fields, link fields etc.  they could not change anything.. butthey could get to all the information.

I just did a normal install of the module, which worked great

Also in edit mode .. I can choose the download documents, which is great,  But later because I cannot actually get to the record in DISPLAY mode, I cannot actually download the document off the DNN serrver to my PC.

PS.. Obviously I am missiing something, I have tried lots.. but no luck. any help would be appreciated.  PS ..I am fairly new to the development part and I am not a .net devloper. ( wish I was)

Did you try to setup a custom template using the built in generator? 
Are you refering with DISPLAY a detail view (like here http://www.formandlist.com/Documentat... for the data types)?

 When I "click the pencil" as stated below from the documentation.on F&L.
-=-=-=--=-=
Edit a Record
To Edit an existing record, click the pencil to the left of the desired row you wish to edit. The Edit form view is displayed.
Enter changes to the record. Depending on
-=-=-=-=-
I can enter changes.   But I also would like to click another icon, besides the edit icon , if possible, to go into display mode of the full (customer)record.

What I want is to have just one or two  people enter all the records. 
Everybody else can display the full record on the form , and to also be able to download any documents I have as type download. It would be nice if they could also edit a notes field, but even that could be left to 1 or 2 people, (editing fields)

Thus , I have the LIST .. and I have the Form..  But I always end up in edit mode on the form when I allow edit,, yes that makes sense.  But, If I  set the settings to View only, I can view the List, but I cannot get to the Form/record  ( customer record in my case) to see , no pencil and no View Icon, instead of a Edit Icon.

Thus I need a VIEW icon, which also allows me to click for downloads etc.

Also thanks for your help.

I recommend a custom template (rendering method "XSLT using self made or generated stylesheets" ->generate new ->Enable the "Add Detail View" option. You can also use a built in template ("XSLT using built-in stylesheets" with "advancedTable.xsl" stylesheet. )
