Disable Field

Hi,

Would anyone happen to know how to disable a field when a selection is made in another?

Ex.

First field: Label - "Do you like to eat?" Value - "Yes, No".

Second field: Label - "Food" Value - "Pizza, hambuger...".

If "No" Gray out or disable Second field.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Stephen

Hmmm there are two suggestions that I can come up with. You cant exactly grey out a field.

1. If you can live with it, this method will be the easiest. Change the validation of the non-entry field so that it only allows data to be entered when the other field is 'Yes'

2. You can use the EventScript plugin and run a script that goes to an identical layout with nonenterable grey color fields when the user selects No. Please do a search on EventScript plugin if you choose to go this route.

You can also use the visibility technique. Go here and search for 'visibility'.
