Can you prevent a user unlocking a locked field?

Hi community,

So I've set some actions upon a sheet opening up, this includes locking some fields.  However, in the live environment, as a user, I can right click and choose to unlock the fields I've locked.  Is there a way of disabling this so that the fields remain locked?

Thanks all!

Hi DataKnight1

Yes, there is a way to do that, although this is not the normal Qlikview "behaviour".

As far as I know, it has to be done programmatically: we have to hide the Navigation menu before saving the Document, and treat its actions (like "Clear") in customized buttons.

Good luck!

Hi - thanks for your response - do you have a guide, or steps to follow to achieve this?

Hi DataKnight1

No, I don't have a guide. The steps are the normal ones for designing a Qlikview aplication:

- right-click over the menu to hide it...

- right-click in a blank space of the sheet to create a button (new object)...

And so on...

Good luck!
