Lock/Unlock on the Server

Hey Guys,

How does lock and unlock work on the server with different users? When one person comes in a locks it does it lock for the users after that? Is there a way to lock it and then not allow users to unlock?

Lock state is maintained separately for each user. What you lock in a server session does not affect my session.

I don't know of a way to prevent a user from unlocking. You can however, assign Actions to the field that reapply the selections and lock. That will effectively make the field "unlockable".

Thanks Rob!

Where would I go to assign an action to a field?

Hi, go to Document Properties/Triggers and in the middle section there are all the fields of your report, then you can assign actions to them
