Read-only fields in Add New

[Mike]

I need help doing #2 below:

My table might have a DateAdded field.

1) When the record is edited, the field should be visible, but read-only.

This seems to work:
MyDb.dbEditFlds = "UserID,DateAdded[" & Date & "]"
MyDb.dbEditUpdateROFlds = "DateAdded"

2) I need to hide this field when a new record is added, but have it default to today's date.

How can I hide fields or make them read-only for adding records?

Thanks!

Mike

I have the same problem. I have a list of tasks filtered by personID.
When a new task is added, personID should default to the Session("PersonID&#34,
but it should not show on either the Update, Edit or Add New forms.
