How to make a field display-only?

**Dave Lambert** · 12-13-2018, 09:45 AM

Good morning all!

How do I make a field on a form display-only? I don't want to be able to tab through any of the fields above the blue line. If possible I don't want to be able to place the cursor in the field at all.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Play with the locked and enabled properties of those controls.

Got it! I adjusted the Tab Stop, Locked and Enabled properties.

Thank you very very much!

Happy to help! Tab stop wouldn't matter with enabled set to no, but certainly won't hurt.
