Lock fields after send a PDF file

Avatar

Level 2

Hello all,

I have done an application that consists in fill in many fields using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.0 program.

After many fields are filled, I click on a Regular button that sends an e-mail.

When I receive the e-mail, I download the attached pdf file to a determined folder.

The problem is that when I open this generated PDF I am able to edit the fields.

Is there any way to lock fields after clicking the Send button?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Roberto

After your code for emailing the form, place additional line of script for making the form as editable..

Language: Java Script/ FormCalc

<parentSubform>.access = "readOnly";

parentSubform is the root subform node of your form..

Thanks

Hi Srini,

I am trying to do the same thing that you suggested above, can you tell me what event that can put the script to have the form to be "read only" after email it to others since I am using the regular button for submit by email.

Thanks,
