Hi,

I know the editable attribute on a list view. however, this attribute affects all fields of the view.  
Is there a way to choose which fields are affected?  
If not, can the ‘readonly’ attribute on fields that we don’t want to make editable be a workaround?

regards

You can set the attribute readonly on the XML definition of the field that you do not want to be editable.
