Quote:
it is necessary for registered users to _see_ the admin fields but not be able to change them.On the record display -- the page that is created when you do a "View Records" thing -- the admin fields will be seen. This is what is created in the html_record subroutine. But when they modify the record, using the html_record_form subroutine, it won't be seen.
You can change that, if you want, though. You could have the contents of the field printed out so they can see what's there, but have the actual form field hidden so they can't change it. You would have to do a little modifying in order to have that happen. If you want me to help you do that, I'd need to know whether you were planning to use the autogenerate feature or you were going to create your own forms and displays. (I suppose I could help you with both, but it's easier just to do one, if I can get away with it. :-) )
