Hi,

Appsheet asking me to make a column read-only but the option is not available in column view?

Thanks for any help

Screenshot from the column structure pls. In that column, do you have any formula in your physical sheet?

@ALI_MOLLAPOUR usually a column can be read-only if the value is auto-cumputed with an expression in its App Formula attribute.
As @LeventK says, it would help if you showed us a screenshot of the column structure.

ALI_MOLLAPOUR:

Read-only is an option in the column’s configuration. Disable Editable? for the column:

Thank you all.

@LeventK Yes I have a formula. I guess it turns into read-only automatically.
@Eloy_Paredes_Henriqu - I thought I have to select a box to make the column read-only but it seems because of the existing formula it turns into a read-only automatically.

Sorry for asking basic questions.

Thank you Steve. So if Editable? is not selected, the column is read-only?

Yes: if Editable? is unchecked, the column is read-only.
