Since you can already determine whether the type of user, I'll assume that
you have a function (IsManager in the following lines) that returns True if
the user is a manager.
In the Open event of your form(s), you can enable/disable various controls
as follows:
Me.MyAddButtonName.Enabled = IsManager
You can also set the form properties to allow edits/additions/deletes in the
same fashion:
Me.AllowEdits = IsManager
