Hi there,  
My app contains a submission form with multiple text entry fields. I would like the submitting user to be able to make changes after submission if needed. It is obvious that anybody logged in can make changes to the information after submission.  
Is there a solution to this problem? Should I use a component different than Text Entry in my form?  
Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your help. That was useful. I also discovered a mistake from my end. I was using fields like Text Entry to allow a user to fill parts of a form. I was also using Text entry instead of Text fields like (action text) to display the form information to other users. That allowed other users to be able to make changes.  
Thanks again!
