Hi again guys and girls,

I have spent a few moments (well, maybe longer) trying to figure out the best / most user-friendly / least tedious-to-code way to make a RECORD (not table, not field) (in a grid most, but not all, of the time) ReadOnly. Without thinking too hard, I can imagine a half-dozen techniques to do same. But I would like to know if there is some sort of standard VFP way to do this.

Among the ways I can imagine are:
fields' WHEN property: RETURN IIF(condexpr,.T.,.F.)
intercepting a SAVE based upon the condexpr
interactiveRowColChange: THIS.ReadOnly = IIF(condexpr,.T.,.F.)
etc.

But they don't feel right to me. I want something that works at the record level and is obvious code when you see it.

TIA,

David
