Disabling Fields

In this section, you disable the CustNum, Name, CreditLimit, Balance, Discount, SalesRep, and Terms fields to prevent users from making changes to these fields. Disabling these fields changes the role of vcust2 in the Customer Update window. Before disabling these fields, users could view and make changes to them. After you disable these fields, this instance of vcust2 limits its use to small changes in the customer’s address, telephone, contact, e-mail, and fax information.

Follow these steps to disable the fields:

  1. Double-click the CustNum field to open its property sheet:
  2. In the Other Settings section, choose the Enable toggle box to deselect it.
  3. Choose OK to return to the design window.
  4. Repeat Step 1 through Step 3 to disable the Name, CreditLimit, Balance, Discount, SalesRep, and Terms fields.
