    Hi
    I have created a form to manage Holiday Requests from Staff. Is there a way to have an approval field (dropdown or choice of some type) that can only be changed by authorised users?

    Thanks

    Alan

    @AlanHeighway: Yes, there is. The way this works in Machform is that you give the field that should only be accessible by authorized users the "Admin Only" property under "Field Visible to" in the "Field Properties" tab when you are editing your form. Then you need to give the authorized users the rights to edit entries for this form in the "Users Manager" page ("Users" tab) of the Admin interface. The authorized users will need to log on to the Machform admin interface to make changes to the "Admin Only" field; they can't do it directly in the form.
