Read Only Forms

[jamies]

Hi
I have a form that is set to allowEdits = False, allowAdditons=False, AllowDeletions = False, thus setting the form to read only.

However I have a textbox on the form that I use to search a particular field. However when the form is set to readonly I cannot enter anything in this textbox.

Any ideas of getting around this without setting all fields individually to locked.

Thanks
jamei

You can toggle the AllowEdits property, perhaps in the got and lost focus events of the textbox.
