Locked Field is being cleared

[#1]

Hello,

I have set a field in the document properties(OnOpen) to be locked but when I hit the standard clear button that field is being cleared.  This field is NOT part of a list box so I cannot set it to 'always have one value selected'...  I am not sure why this is doing this.  I had set the clear state as well and it worked until the application was published in our production system.  It does not work there, but it works in our QA environment.

So I clear the field upon opening the document, then select the appropriate date, then select another field, and then lock my date.. But as I said when I hit the clear button my date goes away that is locked(in the current selections box).

Application on open below(I see ExtractDate is selected and locked)

Hit the Clear button on tool bar

Locked field is not gone from current selections

Thank you

Have you tried 'Reset Clear State' (If already clear state set), ?

Save it. then again open and check.

How is the variable that is setting ExtractDate (vToday) being derived?  Is it predicated on some selections, specifically those that you cleared via the Clear All?

Thank you.  I reset the clear state and then set my other 2 selections that I did not want cleared(I set the listbox to default to 1 value)
