Hi,

I've got a checkbox and a text field. I'd like the checkbox editable as soon as the checkbox is activated (checked). How can I do that (sry I'm new to LCD).

Thanks in advance

Put this script in the change event of the checkbox. Be sure to select JavaScript in the Language dropdown above the script editor.

if (this.rawValue == 1) //Find out if the checkbox is checked.
{
TextField1.access = "open"; //If it is checked then make the text field editable.
}
else
{
TextField1.access = "readOnly"; //If it isn't checked then make the text field read only.
}

Find out more about the access scripting property and other script help from the LiveCycle Designer Help. Just type in access in the Index tab of the help.
