Hi everybody,

I'm trying to build a form with custom submit and reset buttons, where 'submit' is supposed to set all editable fields to readOnly. One of the fields that needs to become readOnly is a 'form number' field on the master page.

The script I wrote works on all the fields in the form design, but not on the field on the master page.

Is this just not doable or am I doing it wrong?
I added the master page field to the script by control clicking over it, so it looks like this:

xfa.resolveNode("#pageSet.Page1.formNumber").access = "readOnly"

Do I need to change the reference somehow?

Thanks,
Zeynep

Hi again, thanks so much for your responses.

I was putting my script in the click event of the button, and I also wanted to show/hide certain buttons on the form, so I'd written a script to do both, rather than use a loop for all fields.
But now, I tried placing the 'for loop' I found at Radzmar's link in my click event and it still works on all the fields except the one on the master page.

Do I need to do something to the master page set up?
