Hi David

You can try something like below

var columnsName = ["part", "part_number","quantity"];
var setFieldDisabled = function(fieldName)
{
for (i = 0; i < fieldName.length; i++)
{
var input = getFieldByName(fieldName);
input.getElementsByTagName("input")[0].disabled = true;
}
};
setFieldDisabled(columnsName);
return this;
I'm not sure what version of ARAS you are using but below lines does not work for my version.
var input = getFieldByName(fieldName);
input.getElementsByTagName("input")[0].disabled = true;
 
So I replaced this two lines with below line and it works.
 
document.forms.MainDataForm.elements[fieldName].disabled = true;
 
 
Thank You

        Hi Gopikrishnan,

          Is there a way to disable the entire form with all the fields without having to disable individual fields on the form?

        Any input is appreciated.
