>>Since there is no selection in the preferences menu for making items such as Combo Bodes, Spinners and Option Groups read only, is there a line of code I can write in a particular property that will make them so? I'd rather they couldn't edit the data in those fields unless they click the edit button.

>Combo.Enabled=.F.

Alternatively, Shawn, if you don't want the 'grayed out' look of Enabled = .f., you can set a form property that is TRUE for readonly = TRUE, FALSE otherwise. In the WHEN method of your combo, option group, etc. put a line

IF thisform.ReadOnlyProp = .T.
   return .F.
ELSE
   return .T.
ENDIF

This keeps the control(s) from getting focus at all, but they still LOOK as if they were 'live', matching the other controls you changed with SetAll()

You'll find this form property is useful in many other ways, such as button captions.
