Prevent deletion of a SharePoint list item

Question

How can I prevent users from deleting a sharepoint task list item? Should I override the ItemDeleting event, or are there other site level options available to achieve the same?

Answer 1

You can also configure your own permission level out of the box.

• Go to your site collection (if you are on a subsidiary site, you can go to Site Actions → Site Settings → Go to the top-level site settings)
• Site Actions → Site Settings → Additional Permissions
• Click "Settings" → "Permission Levels"

"Contribute" " ". .

Answer 2

, ItemDeleting:

public override void ItemDeleting(SPItemEventProperties properties)
{
    properties.ErrorMessage = "User don't have permission";
    properties.Cancel = true;
}
