Hi!
Is there a way to change the text colour of a disabled field value? It looks very light (gray) and I would like to change it to dark (black).
If the above is not possible, is there a way to make the value of the field readonly or locked? The field value that I have is a lookup from another table and it is dependent to a dropdown field.
Thanks,

Jay

Jay,
it's not possible to change the color of the dropdown field.

Hi Ann,
Thanks for confirming that.
Is there a way to make that field (dropdown that was set as Edit box with AJAX popup) uneditable/locked? The problem that I have is, the value is so difficult to read when it is disabled. I am hoping to make that field unchangeable without sacrificing its text colour.
If the above is not possible, is there a way to make the cell (where that field is sitting) protected so the field will become untouchable? I have done this in MS Excel using VBA but I don't know if it can be done in ASP Runner 6.1.
Thanks,

Jay

Jay,
dropdown can be set only as disabled. As an option you can hide field or show alert pointing out that editing isn't possible.

Thanks for that information, Ann.
