Default Make Query or Linked Table Read Only

In Access 03 & 07 I have tables linked via ODBC to a MySQL database. Due to
many security, DB, and vendor issues, I do not have an option to change the
MySQL permissions or change the ODBC driver.

I need to find a way to make the linked tables read-only (preferred) or at
least make queries to those tables read-only. Simply locking the form's
controls is not sufficient. I had users accidentally delete data in the
MySQL anyway.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm bordering on having to
scrap a 3 month project if I can't secure the data.

Thanks!!
