Thanks for that help.  I was sure your suggestion would fix it when I saw your response, but it seems to not work.  It does preserve the access settings of objects (open, readOnly, etc.), but it inconsistently preserves properties like font color and border color; some of the grayed out fields remain gray, and some are changed back to black (and vice-versa).  Not sure why the inconsistency, but I'll need to do something else if I can't fix that.

I guess my other option is to have a script run every time the form is opened to check for entries and set the object states accordingly, huh?  That's going to hurt.  I haven't worked with the high-level events.  Any suggestions for which event I'd put this in?  Initialize?  docReady? form:ready?  layout:ready?

If any other ideas on how to get the preserving scripting to work, I'd be appreciateive.  Otherwise, I'll start working on this unfortunate script.

Thanks again,
