Hi

I have a form with a date field. The Tab Stop property is set to No.
The field has a default value of the current date =date().

I don't want the user to be able to change the default date. The Tab
Stop is set to No but if you click in the field, you can change the
date. How do I prevent this from happening ? I don't see an obvious
was to do this. (at least for me).

Please let me know and thanks in advance for your help.

Set the control's Locked property to Yes AND it's Enabled property to
No. The user will not be able to enter the control at all.
