How to accomplish this goal?

Hi guys,

We would like to add a custom list in Sharepoint site. And only let a
specific group users add item, but can not view those items.

I've tried the approach below.
Create 2 lists(list a and list b) with same columns. give the specific group
users contribute permission on list a, but no access on list b. And develop
an event handler on list a's itemadded event. When one item was added in list
a, copy it to list b then delete it from list a.
Unfortunately, I found the event handler did NOT work for the specific group
users. Only work for the group users who have access on list b.

Do you have any good ideas?
Br,
Alan

Hi,

you can use SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges method to run the
peace of code that creates item in list B.

The problem is that the "created by" field is "system account" and not
the current user.

You could use custom Dataform/Dataview webparts through SPD to create
the user interface.
Although it is not truly security (i.e. if they know the URL they
could go there),
the users would have no navigation elements to get to the actal list.
THis is
closer to a no code solution.

Another option would be to write a console application that on some
scheduled basis copied from one list to the other. If you do that you
can specifically set the =93Created By=94 and =93Updated By=94 fields.
There=92s a nice blog article on it here:

We read the manual, so you don't have too.

Thanks for your suggestion.
But I need to copy item when it is created right away.

Thanks.
I know this approach. But this is an internet facing website.
