I need to create an Announcements webpart that will display announcements to the users when they log into a custom application we created using Kentico.

Users will only see the announcements, but based on the user role (admin), the admin should be able to modifiy the announcements. We need the editor to display for the admin without him or her going into the cmsdesk (the application users never need to go into CMSDesk, everything is done through the custom application).

Is there an api call that can be used to put the editor for editable text into edit mode for the admin role and just display the text for basic users?
