>I have a check box linked to a logical field. Sometimes in forms, I would like to display it's state, but don't want users to change it.

Any ideas how I can prevent users from changing the state of the checkbox

Vozdra :)

You can set a property in the form when you want the checkboxes disabled, and in these checkboxes' .GotFocus simply put

if ThisForm.BoxesDisabled
this.lostfocus
endif

Another way is to put

return not thisform.BoxesDisabled

in the boxes' When event method. Of course, I have assumed you set this property to .t. when you want to forbid changing the checkboxes' state, and .f. when you want to allow it.
