locking the field

Anonymous — Fri, 10 Jul 2015 17:26:02 GMT

Hi,

There's a field in my application which is always locked.

Actually it is locked within the two alternate states $ and AS?

In case when I reload the data, the lock sometimes is automatically removed. But I don't know about it.

Is it possible to lock some field in the script when loading the data and forbid the end user to unlock it?

Thank you in advance,

Larisa

I would probably add another action to the On Open trigger.

Select in Field to select those fields within the fields getting locked so that they don't get locked without any selection. I am not sure if it would be an issue because triggers don't always go in order, but I would think that this might be important.

HTH

Best,

Sunny

It's a nice piece of advice. I'll try it.
