Syntax

CALL SEND (object-id, '_protectColumn', col-name-1<,...col-name-n>);

Argument Type
Description

col-name-1<,...col-name-n>

C specifies one or more column names to protect. A single value of the quoted string, '_ALL_', specifies all columns.

Details

If you are using a data form with legacy (Version 6-based) widgets, the effect of _protectColumn is that you can type into columns that are protected, but the widgets revert to their previous state when you press enter. If you are using a data form with SCOM-based controls, you cannot type in the column if it is protected.

If you are using a data table, the effect of _protectColumn is that you cannot type in the column at all.
