write protection after entry

Hi all,
another question - I have created a db where different users can ente
memos of conversations - these are indexed by IDs, so I can at wil
create a report that lists all conversations with a certain person
Roughly...
Now I would like to be able - in order to protect any tampering wit
past memos - to write-protect memos after saving, so noone can - b
mistake - change an ID or something in an existing memo when entering
new one.
Am I being clear? As already mentioned by the way, I'm not good at al
at programming, I just use the Access tools and macros...
Thanks for the help

Use a different form to enter/edit this field from the other forms that you
use to view it later. In the design view for the write-protected field,
select Properties > Data > Enabled=Yes, change to No, Locked=No, change to
Yes.
