Hello everyone,
Can anyone tell me how can I execute sql statements in Readonly mode so that delete command cannot be executed.
Write now I have made a new user with ReadOnly permissions but I herd that there is some way via which we can execute our statements in ReadOnly mode without making a new user.
So is there anyone who is aware of the same.

Thanks

Yes it is possible. Try the following command

//Make read only

ALTER DATABASE database-name SET READ_ONLY

//Back to read write

ALTER DATABASE database-name SET READ_WRITE
