fjcortes Is there a way to protect the written part of a text field to add new words to the end of the written portion without being able to edit or delete the previously saved writing? Aware IM V5.1a - Build 1471
RocketRod Sounds like you just need to make them multiple instances instead of trying to make it just one? Cheers Rod
tford Try this: PROTECT BO.CurrentText from ALL EXCEPT SYSTEM Then you can use a rule: BO.CurrentText=BO.Current.Text+BO.NewText
nlarson I've used similar rules to form summary fields which I used for a global 'quick search' But I never really considered the manner you have suggested Tom. It just gave me an awesome idea, so thanks!!
