    in MenuItem you can use the Parameters property to pass some text saying that this menu item is for 'Student'

    then in init() method of the form you can check if element.args() is having parm() as 'Student' then write code to disable the related field

    Please verify if this solves your requirements

    Nitesh's answer is in the right direction, I would just use an enum parameter (set menu item properties EnumTypeParameter and EnumParameter, read values from element.args(),parmEnumType() and  element.args().parmEnum()).

    Then get a reference to your field through YourTable_ds.object(fieldNum(YourTable, YourField)) and set call visible(false).

    I would advise creating a new Base Enum with Customer and Student as your elements and then utilizing the EnumTypeParameter and EnumParameter properties of the menu item to drive your logic to disable fields instead of hard coding text in the Parameters property.

    Sorry for the double post, I didn't see Martin's post of the same answer. :)
