Tricky Privilege Set inquery..

[adamsoderqvist]

Hello

I have an application that features 4 user levels. The lowest one is set read-only. Though: what I want is for the users in this level to be able to enter search parameters in a search-field (and not by entering find mode. Long story but that's necessary!) and then press a button saying "Search". BUT: This is undoable since the group is set to read-only.

So far I've set a calcuation for the specified field in the privilege set that says that editing is possible when:

Get(ActiveFieldName)="zFindField".

This works, but the problem is that this calculation is performed when entering the application, and is NOT recalculated at each time; resulting in that if the user exits the field and does something else, and then try to enter search parameters again - the user get a message saying that the field is not modifiable.

Does anyone have an idea on how to solve this..? - Cause I'm fresh out!

1. Never let the user search on regular layouts.
2. Make 3 layouts : 1 for search with all the fields were they can search on, 1 for redirection when there are no records (error 400+), 1 for no match criteria.
Let the user navigate through the layouts with this script.
3. script your search with 3 scripts.
