Some protected fields are still editable

Hi,

In my LiveCycle PDF, I have a large number of fields that I have set to "protected" access depending on some conditions.

However a couple of fields are still editable despite their access showing as "protected" (in console debugger window).

None of the other fields have this problem. What could be causing this?

Please note this happens for most cases, but in some cases even these troublesome fields correctly show as uneditable.

Thanks.

Hi Belle7777,

I doubt there is some other piece of code that is overwriting the access "protected".

I mean, after your fields are protected, there must be some other piece of code which is making the fields access as "open".

Pls check.

Thanks,

Vijay.

Are these fields part of a "Forms Object Collection" that are unlocked until a signature locks them?

Thanks for the responses.

@ruedesigns: No, the fields are not part of a Forms Object Collection.

@kvdvijaykumar : All checked and verified that there is only one place where we are setting the access to the fields..

can you share the script how you are making the field protected or can you share the form.
