Grey fields out but still make data entry possible

Is there a way to "grey" a control out on the form but still make data entry
into it? I have txtBasicLifeSupport. Some employees do not need it. What I
have so far is "If JobTitle = "Registered Nurse" Then
Me.BasicLifeSupport.Visible = True" which works great. But I need it to be
visible and editable for the clerks who do NOT need BLS but have it anyway.
The .Enabled doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks! SFC Traver

How about using Conditional Formatting to change the
control's Fore and Back Colors so it looks kind of like a
disabled control?
