Hi ,
I am very new to LiveCycle and just trying to  figure out how to achieve the below requirement
 
- There is an existing PDF form that has multiple input Form.
- As a result of certain action on the application , the PDF form gets generated with data filled in through LiveCycle
- The requirement is to make some of the fields "Read-Only" or uneditable during the generation process in LiveCycle so that once the user sees these forms they can not edit those fields.
 
Kindly help me getting a resolutionj. i have tried to look around google , but could not get a relevant post that addresses this problem. I will keep looking but any help from you will be highly apprciated!
 
Thanks
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh,
You can select the fields and using javascripts you can set it property as read only. Search for some sample programs 

Thanks and regards

The easy way is to open the fragments or forms and select the field and set their access property as read only or protected.
If there is a condition based access has to be set to a field, use java script to make the field read only based on the condition

fieldname.access = 'readonly' (or) fieldname.access = 'protected';
