Color changes with Enable/disable

[JMorrell]

In my form, I have a field that I want users to see, but not edit. The
Enable property keeps a user from editing the field, but it also changes the
visible properties. How can I make the field "look" the same as all other
fields?

tia,

Make the field
Enabled = False
Locked = True

Or, if you don't mind the user locating the cursor in that field then just
keep it
Locked = True

cover it with an invisible label - i often use it's own label

p.s. for best effect, be sure to take it out of the tab order so user can't
select it anyhow
