Disable Field?

[tylerg11]

I have subform fields visible on my main form that I don't want the user to be able to edit. I know that the Locked property will accomplish this. However, I don't even want the user to be able to click in those text boxes to avoid any confusion. I want the "display only" text boxes to appear as such. I am now using the Enabled property to accomplish this. However, will this affect the data in the text boxes? I like how gives the text box a disabled feel, but does it affect data in any way? The data is entered on a different form, and I don't want that to be affected. Thanks.

The data is not affected, you are disabling the element of the form.

So the Enabled property is specifically referring to the formatting of the text box...the data can still be edited on other forms?

Yes, Ive just tried this a view days back.
