Is there an authorization list on the files? If you're lucky maybe the files already have an authorization list. If you're not lucky maybe you could create an authorization list and grant authority on the files to that authorization list. Then you just maintain the user authority in the authorization list.

Subject: Read only special authority?
I have created a user to be used by a report application that connects via JDBC. What I am looking for is an efficient way to grant this user read only access to large groups of files in our ERP data libraries without having to grant authority on each individual file. I was hoping to find a solution similar to giving the user *allobj special authority that would allow read only access.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
