Hi bugwee.....
Thanks friend........your code is working absolutely fine.....
But can you tell me on what occasions a text-box should be made read-only......?
Text boxes are used for writing texts ......right ?
Thanks and Regards

Hello Akiii,
Mostly my projects are e.g. data entries or POS. Therefore, i have to set it to read-only when the users just want to view their previous entries.

Hello Akiii,
We may set the textbox to readonly to prevent a malicious user from changing a Text value that is read-only.
