Disallow adding records in Grid Edit

If the Role the user is in does not allow adding records, then those 4 blank rows will not appear.  I  believe that would be the only native solution.

Heather, 

As Mark states, I do not think there is a native way to hide the 4 columns, but you can still prevent them from adding records.  If you create a formula checkbox, say [Existing Record] in your table and set the formula to  if(not isNull([Date Created]), true, false) and add this field to the grid edit form you created. Then under the advanced settings for that table, turn on the custom data rules and place a formula that states if([Existing Record] = false, "You cannot add records using this form").  Since the checkbox is a formula field, the user cannot edit the checkbox, all the existing records will already be true due to the formula (so edits can be saved) and the rule in the advanced table setting will be checked before the save and throw the error. So it will be very difficult, if not impossible, for them to add a record from that form.  I have not been able to test this extensively and it will not hide the rows, but it does prevent from adding new records.
