Hi All,

Is there a quick and easy way to lock all the fields on an entire for without signing them?

Thanks

Lee

Hi Lee,

"Locked" such as in "Unable to change in InfoPath" (read-only), or "Locked" so that the xml cannot be change using Notepad for example?

Locked so that if the user opens the form in infopath it cannot be changed. The only way I was able to figure it out was to go to each field and set a condition that set the control to read only based on a hidden fields flag.

Hi Lee,

An alternative is to catch a OnBeforeChange event at the form level and to cancel the event. This way, you don't have to physically modify each individual controls.

Hi Franck, can you actually prevent people from changing xml via notepad?

To my knowledge, not without signing...

Hi Lee,
Create an additional view that is read-only and switch them to that.
