Make fields from other table read only on a form.

[Anish Reghu]

I am on the rm_story form.

I have three fields here:

Product (Dictionary settings below)

Product owner:

Short description:

I use the following script to make all fields on the rm_story form read only in the on Load Client Script defined on the rm_story table.

var fields = g_form.getEditableFields();
for (var x = 0; x < fields.length; x++) {
g_form.setReadOnly(fields[x], true);

But the above said 3 fields are not set to read only. I know it is because these 3 fields are derived from other tables.

How to set such fields read only too while I set all fields in the form to be read only on Load?

And how to add an exception? (like) if I want the field 'Product alone to be editable and also set the Focus on that field on loading the form.

Looks like all the fields you are trying to make read only are mandatory, make them non-mandatory through dictionary over ride and then try the client script . Mandatory fields cannot be made read-only.

Dictionary override  is not possible. Please refer to my previous comments.
