I would like to be able to have a field with a drop-down list that can only be ADDED with the Pop-Up form but cannot be edited on the GRID.
I have tried the following and it does-not work;
$col[“show”] = array(“list”=>true, “add”=>true, “edit”=>false, “view”=>true, “bulkedit”=>false);
This is a drop-down field as well – that looks-up the values from a query.
Thanks for any help you can offer

Sorry – I wasn\’t very clear. It need to be able to edit SOME of the fields – so I have inline editing turned on for 3 columns but I only want to be able to add certain fields and not edit them after they have been added.
I still don’t understand. Please share screenshot to explain futther.

Yes – it sounds confusing. I am adding a new ID record with a “SKILL”. I need to be able to add a new record but only want to change the dates – not the Employee ID or skill.
See attached screen shot. I need to be able to add a record with two key fields – but I don’t want anyone being able to EDIT those fields once the record is created. So add-only, no edit on two fields – add or edit on the other fields. Yes – confusing. This is to avoid users changing key-data after the record has been created.
The edit is being done inline, not with the pop-up form.
I understand now. Will be updating you back.

Apologies for the delay. It took a lot of time.
We figured out it is doable in existing build as well.
In non-editable column, along with following:
$col[“show”] = array(“list”=>true, “add”=>true, “edit”=>false, “view”=>true, “bulkedit”=>false);
You need to add this as well:
$col[“editrules”][“readonly”] = true;
This will make it non-editable (readonly) inline while available in add dialog.
PS: Ideally the first line should suffice for both dialog and inline. We’ll be review it.
