Hi I do have a form with a form datasource set to allowedit = NO. We do have an edit method for one field on the form to enter a value in one field. As Sysadmin it works but not with user roles.

Any sugegstions?

    Hi CSRW,

    It's now working - Can you elaborate.

    Is the field not visible when you test it with non-system admin role?

    Thanks,

    Girish S.

    Please check whether the tables used in the edit method select statement has access to the security roles.

    Thanks,

    Does that control have Needed permission property set to manual?

    Is the form custom or standard one?

    Thanks,

    If the needed permission property on the control is set to manual, then you need to add that control to the security roles.

    If you don't want security role just to change that Needed permission property to None and check.

    Refer to the below documentation.
