Yes, but not in a contradictory manner as shown below:

			Global							Queue
			-------------------------------			-----------------------------------
Everyone	CommentOnTicket				CommentOnTicket
			CreateTicket						CreateTicket
			ReplyToTicket					ReplyToTicket
			SeeQueue						SeeQueue

Unprivileged
				-								-

Privileged	CreateSavedSearch					-
			EditSavedSearch						-
			LoadSavedSearch					-
			SeeDashboard						-
			ShowapprovalsTab					-
			ShowSavedSearches					-
			SubscribeDashboard					-

User defined
			ModifySelf						As listed in my previous email, I had incrementally  
added:
												ModifyTicket
												OwnTicket
												ShowTicket
												ShowTicketComments
												Watch
												WatchAdminCc

	Here is a clarification for what I am after. From the "RTat a glance"  
page,
		=>"Quick Search",
			a) if you were to click on any of the Queues that show up here, you  
will be taken to another page which reflects the number of tickets  
found for the selected Queue.
			b) At this stage:
				b.1) Presently, both the "Ticket No" & "Subject" are hyperlinked.
				b.2) As such if you were to select "Ticket No" or "Subject" you  
will be taken to a page that contains
				 all details corresponding to that Ticket (i.e., Ticket Metatdata,  
Custom Fields, People, History, reminders, Dates, Links, etc.)

				-What I am after, is (using ACL's) to allow the user to get to  
stage "b.1" above, but not to be allowed to go to stage "b.2" (i.e.,  
"Ticket No" & "Subject" stop
					being hyperlinked items). That is I don't want some users to see  
all details corresponding to a Ticket, but I want to give them the  
chance to see some
					high-level attributes (i.e., Ticket No) corresponding to Tickets  
in a Queue.

	If this is not doable, it may be a "feature request".
