>>I remember (from back in the dark ages) in Foxpro for DOS there's a problem with the edit region where if you don't want the user to change the data but need them to be able to scroll (bound to a memo field) you couldn't disable the box because the scroll bar is disabled too. So there was a "trick" to make the edit box pseudo-readonly but yet allow the user to use the scroll bar. Well, I need that trick and can't find it anywhere in my notes, books, on-line, etc. Anyone remember what that was? I think it's something you put in the When clause?????

I'll just correct myself, as I have seen my mistake from other replies.

In the screen builder, in the WHEN, create an expression containing

.T. NOMODIFY

and that will do it.
