How to set field so it is read only

[Jack]

On a master form how do you set the field so that it is read only (data can
not be changed)?

 

[Jeanette Cunningham]

If you want a text box to be read only, you set its Locked property to Yes
(on the Data tab of its property sheet).

If you want all data on the form to be readonly, you set AllowEdits to No.
Then you don't have bother with setting the textbox to locked.

Thanks a lot. It seem so easy when someone knows what they are doing.
