Cannot edit in read-only editor

[shashitaya]

I need to make the "script" field read-only in a table, as described in the attachment. Where can I find the configuration settings to accomplish this?

Hi @shashitaya,

it seems that record is read-only..

Is it script include or what it is? Check whether there is any protection applied...

If it is a script include, you will might need to extend it and make your changes there leaving this very record untouched...

But more details are needed, it's not clear from your vague description and screenshot. Please tell us more

Hi @shashitaya 

Yes, this is possible. To make a Script-type field read-only, you can follow these steps:

1. Go to System Definition → Dictionary.

2. Select the table containing the Script-type field (for example, I used the Email Filter table).              

                    

         3. Open the Dictionary record for the Script field.

                    

      4. Check the Read-only box click Save.
      5. Open a record in that table and check the field — it should now appear read-only on the form.
