    Hi

    I have a Group created and the group has Read, Limited Access permissions against a particular document in a document library.  When a user navigates to that library, she does not see the document; however, when I add Editor access to that group, she sees the document.  I only want her to be able to open and read the document not edit it.  The document is an Excel Services spreadsheet.  Any ideas?  Thank You!!

    Hey all . . . just wanted to post an update.  I figured out the the document in question was not published with a major version.  As soon as I made that change, read only permissions worked as expected.  I figured I would post this update in case anyone else came across this issue.
