I have some fields on my forms that i do not want certain people to have
access to edit them. How would i go about setting them up so that i can lock
or disable those fields so that these users cannot use them? Or is this
question better suited for the forms coding board? Thanks for any help you
can provide.

It depends on how you've setup your user capability. With the regular
security it is not possible to restrict on field level. So if you want te
restrict on field level you should setup a usertable and designate the user
some sort of 'rights'-code. Based on that table you could set up a
formrestriction based on who's the current user of that form. Based on that
users rights you can disable the designated fields.
