Make bound form programmatically read only

[pwomack]

I have a Windows form bound to a SQL table. I don't use a datagridview, just individual fields. How can I programmatically make the form read only?

Thanks.

One way I can think of is to put all of your bound controls in a sub-container such as a panel or a group box. Then you can set the .Enabled property of the sub-container to False, and all of the controls in it will be disabled as well.
