How do I create a Datalist with only a View button or a clickable column to open the form

How do I create a Datalist with only a View button or a clickable column to open the form? I am able to get a default Edit button and show Delete and New buttons but I can't seem to generate a Datalist with only a View button or a clickable column to open the form.

You need three things:
1. You should create, in a userview, a read-only form element that points to the form you need with a custom ID (1). 

And that also in the section URL Redirect after form submission points to a custom ID of (2).

2. Then, in the list, you add a hyperlink that points to the custom ID (1) and the one you send, as a parameter the ID.

3. The list (or the CRUD) that you already published in the userview must have the custom ID (2).

It also works if you put it as a hyperlink through the Action Mapping of a column in the list (that seems more elegant to me and you don't add columns to the end of the list :) )

Hi, are you using the CRUD menu? If so, there is an option to set the form as readonly CRUD Menu#Edit
