Form - validate field and make a field unenterable

[Rhubie]

1) I have calculated fields on my form - I do not want them in the tab order - how do I prevent them from entering those fields?

2) I have a required field that I want to validate when they leave the field - not when they save the record.



I am new to the forms and have looked in the properties - could not find anything to do these type of things.

Take a look at the "Enabled" and "Locked" properties of controls.

2)I have a required field that I want to validate when they leave the field - not when they save the record.
This can be done with code in the "Before Update" event of the control.
