In the script below, designed to lock all fields of a form; I need to tweak it so that if a specific option (Enterprise), is chosen from a DropDownList, every field in the form except TextField16 is automatically locked for editing, along with the Button functions that are already coded as exceptions in this script. I am not a programmer, and the kind assistance from a member of this forum who gave me this script, will not be available for the next 6 weeks while he is on vacation.
Anyone?
