I have a form displayed with various command buttons on it. I want to stop the fields from being highlighted automatically. One, it looks untidy and two it makes the user think they can edit them (when they can't because they're all locked).

Any ideas?

Probably a blindingly simple answer to this one...and please keep any replies simple, because I am!
