BndRead: Data Control with Bound ReadOnly Text Boxes in VB 3.0 The sample READONLY.MAK project contains one READONLY.FRM form. In this form there are three Labels, one Data Control, two bound Text boxes and two Command buttons. The idea of the sample is to demonstrate how to make certain bound text boxes ReadOnly or Read/Write by the press of a button. This sample uses data from the Access database(BIBLIO.MDB). You first see the bound data being displayed in the default Read/Write text boxes. Then you can press the 'Push to make ReadOnly' command button. Once this button is pushed, you can not enter or change the data in the bound text boxes. Then, if you press the 'Push to make Read/Write' command button, you can edit or change the bound data in the text boxes.
