Disabling "Save as.." button on Read Only database

In our office we have Public Logins, which allow users to access the contents of folders on the network. The folders are Read-only for the Public Login. When a user accesses a MSAccess (2010) file, it naturally opens as Read-Only, but Access advises you of this and asking if you want to do a Save as.. I do not want the users to be able to "Save as.." anything; so is there a way of preventing Access from displaying this alert message?

TIA

Put this in the On Load Event for the Default Form that opens when you launch the database:

Code:
DoCmd.SetWarnings False</pre>
