MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce the Behavior

  1. On a computer that has the developer components installed, register a database in Access Workflow Designer.
  2. Add a main table, and then add workflow to the main table.
  3. Create a page. Be sure to select the appropriate fields (including the modStateID field) from the associated view. Set the UniqueTable property of the page header to the base table (on the Data tab).
  4. Click the page header. Insert the Workflow Toolbar Control.
  5. Right-click an empty spot of the page, and then on the shortcut menu, click Microsoft Script Editor.
  6. In the Script Outline window, expand the ActiveXCtl0 item (ActiveXCtl0 is the default name for the Workflow Toolbar Control. If this is not the Workflow Toolbar Control's name, expand the item under the appropriate object name.)
  7. Double-click the Click Action. Type ActiveXCtl0.LockFieldsBeforeEdit = False.
  8. Save the script, and then quit the Script Editor.
  9. Save the page in the database, and then save it to the Web folder.
  10. On a computer with the client components installed, browse to the page that you saved in the Step 9.
  11. Click the New button on the Workflow Toolbar Control. Note that you cannot add a new record.
  12. On the development computer, open the page, and then comment out the line of code that you added in Step 7. The line of code should now look as follows:

    'ActiveXCtl0.LockFieldsBeforeEdit = False

  13. Save the script, and then quit the Script Editor.
  14. Save the page.
  15. On a computer that has the client components installed, browse to the page.
  16. Click the New button on the Workflow Toolbar Control. Note that you can now add a new record.
