Hi,

Any one know is it possible to block deletion / renaming of properties from define shape data window(for shape data section properties)?

thanks in advance.

Hi all,

I'm having the same problem. I'm using DOCMD(1312) to get my users to enter data and then have some of this data appear in the shape's text field. Each time they double click they also have the option to "define shape data" but i would really like to prevent the user from doing this.

An option for "protect defined shape data" or "protect user from defining shape data" would be perfect. Any ideas??

Thanks in advance.

Faced the same problem when I tried to find a solution for your last question.
Anyway, I think you should set the "LockCustProp" field in the shapesheet to true (section Protection)

Yacine, thank you !
I'm surprised. Never paid attention to this cell. It was even in the 2003 version / Proof
