Yes this can be done utilizing simple if condition in the Javascript onload event. Something like this:



var ctrlitem = Runner.getControl(pageid, 'item');
if(ctrlitem .getValue() != '')

//do nothing or set to read write - remove comment if you want it to read write

//ctrlitem.makeReadWrite();

}else{

//force read only since field contains value

ctrlitem .makeReadonly();

}
