Q: 

Why 'People' columns are not available for Read-Only users in SharePoint Datasheet view?

I can see columns that list people names in SharePoint's datasheet view, but read-only users cannot.

Is there a way for read-only users to see columns of this type? The type of information in this column is: Person or Group, no mandatory information, allow multiple selections, People only, choose from All users, show field - name with presence.

A: 

I'm Kevin and I work on SharePoint

What's likely happening is that the read-only user doesn't have access to the user info list where this information is stored.

The user info is from our outlook address repository, so they all should have access.

Hi Kevin,All users are stored in the same database, I can see everything, so can they, exept for these columns in SharePoint. We tried with a Test user and it worked, but it did not with real people.
