How to prevent editing of rt field by user

greetings,

I have an editable rt field - which its value is set by RenderTortitem of loutsscript, I can not make it computed because then the code doesn’t work.

Is there anyway that I can prevent users to change the field- only the code run by user should be able to change the field.

Thanks

You might want to look at a weblog post I wrote a while back about this exact problem. The post was called Rocky’s Workaround, and it suggests a couple of ways to handle this.

Thanks Ben, this worked fine, however the user needs to read the attachments in the rt field, now the users can’t click and open the attachements

Attachments are a challenge even with computed rich text. You can take the approach of saving the attachment elsewhere and simply referring to it. I am not sure whether you can prevent opening it using any technique if it is on the document somewhere.
