Protect form from editing but still export data to spreadsheet

[DKinsley]

Is there a way I can protect my forms so others can not edit them but they are able to export the data to a spreadsheet?

Hi,

You can use Paul's LockAllFields function, which will prevent a user editing a field, but still allow data export from the form. It is basically setting the access property of all fields to readOnly.

See Paul's example here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3168183#3168183. I have a slightly amended version here: http://assure.ly/yDtfsM.

Hope that helps,

Niall
