Hi ,

new to this, so please bare with me....

i created a document in LC ES 8.2.1.3144....

it works fine until i sign it electronically.

The issue occurs not after signing, but after locking parts of the document.​

After that i get the Following message:

Since your scriptings still execute after you have locked your form, you running into the described scenario. To avoid that you'll have to put your scripts into an if expression, so they do execute only under specific circumstances.

Sample 1: Use the value of a (hidden) reference field

// Only execute script when value of reference field is "0"

if (myReferenceField eg "0") then

    $ = Sum(Price1, Price2, Price3, Price4, Price5, Price6)

endif

Sample 2: Use a fields property

// Only execute script if this field is not locked

if ($.access eq "open") then

    $ = Sum(Price1, Price2, Price3, Price4, Price5, Price6)

endif
