Continuous form Allow Edits=False locks fields in form header

[jhg]

I use unbound fields in a form header in a continuous form to allow users to enter filter criteria. This work well.

However, this form doesn't allow changes to data (it's for users to select a row, which then opens in a dialog form), I want to set Allow Edits=False. When I do this, the unbound input fields in the header are also locked.

Is this what's supposed to happen?

To put the question another way, how would I make a form's underlying resultsetdbReadOnly?

Yes - instead change the form recordset type from dynaset to snapshot
