sean p Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 hi everyone i have a Field set up as an edit box and it includes the vertical scroll bar....... i want to be able to scroll up and down to view the data ( which is quit long ) in the field.... however i would like to prohibit field entry....... is this possible ????? i tried to uncheck the "allow field to be entered in browse mode " but it also locks the scroll bar ....... i even tried to cover the field with a transparent button that runs a dummy script , i.e exit script .......which works fine until you scroll up or down then suddenly you are again permited to enter the field. how can i prevent entry into field yet being able to scroll up or down ?????smiley-undecided thx in advance sean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHunter3 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Define a calculation field, result type "text", defined simply as YourExistingField. Put that field instead of YourExistingField on your layout and put a vertical scroll bar on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
