Description

This property puts the form into read only mode, where it can get the focus but its value cannot be edited.

The advantage of pbReadOnly over pbEnabled is that the contents can still be copied to the clipboard easily. The form will visually show its read only state (depending on the theme).

About Web Properties

Each web property maintains two values: The regular property value is set during object creation and should not be changed during the lifetime of that object. To access that value, use the standard property Get and Set syntax.

The web property value is the local value stored at each client. This is synchronized to the client's local value whenever a server call is being processed. To access the web property value, use the WebGet and WebSet syntax above instead of the standard Get and Set syntax.
