Admin Only Text Areas
Hi there,

I have created a form where new users can be signed up and only view their own records

But in the form they can modify their records ie address tel no etc. but there are certain fields like commission earnt and date added that i want them to be able to view but not modify which is happening at the moment, ive change the text are size to -2 as stated in the configurator, but its not working what am i missing

regards

mdj

What you could do is in the actual modify and add forms, is have the fields be hidden, like the following:

<input type="hidden" name="FieldName">$rec{'FieldName'}

Then when they modify their records, they will see the fields in the modified and add screens.

Regards,
