Anna, 

I think you're talking about the OCX Control.  There are security settings
for that.

I've pasted the instructions from the opencms install below.  Hope this is
what you're looking for.

--------Optional installation of the advanced source code editor-------
If you use MS Internet Explorer on Windows, there is an optional
source code editor component available that offers some advanced
features. The installation of this editor is only necessary if you
need a source code editor with functions like search and replace in
the source code editing mode. If you do not install this optional
component, you will work with a HTML textarea for source code editing.
In this case, you do not have to change any extra browser settings. If
you want to use the advanced editor, please follow the instructions
provided below.

* The source code editor is a component developed by AY Software and
it's called LeEdit OCX Control. You can download the shareware version
of this control from the site: http://www.aysoft.com/ledit.htm. This
control must be installed on all clients that need access to the source 
code editor functionality. If you do not install this component,
OpenCms will provide a HTML textarea for the source code input, whic 
is less convenient but also usable in general.
* In order to configure your Internet Explorer for the source code
editor to work properly, open IEs "Internet options". Then do the
following:
* On the tab "Security", select "Trusted site zones" from the
drop-down menu and click on "Add Sites" to add the URL (e.g.
http://opencms.mycompany.com - ask your system administrator for the
exact URL) of the zone's OpenCms server. Deactivate the radio button
"Require server verification (https:) for all sites in this zone".
* On the tab "Security", select "Trusted site zones" from the
drop-down menu and click on "Settings". All control elements must be
set to "Enable". A note on security: It is safe to use such controls
with these settings since their use is allowed only for the "Trusted
sites", and they remain disabled for all other web sites.

Hi,
I am trying to edit a form. but i get the following error:

This page provides potentially unsafe information to an ActiveX control.
Your current security settings prohibit running controls in this manner. as
a result this page may not display correctly.

What kind of permissions need to be set so that i can edit a page?

Thanks,
Anna
