"Inactive" checkbox in IM Custom Tab

By a combination of expression based formatting on the datawindow, essentially.

1.       For font color, use this in the Text Color expression property:  If(inactive = 'Y', RGB(100,100,100), 0)

2.       To make something read-only, use this in the Protect field expression property:  If(inactive = 'Y', 1, 0)

3.       To make the sort work, simply add “inactive” as the first column used in the default sort….so all inactive = ‘N’ will sort before inactive = ‘Y’.

Just to note, inactive records in addresses , eaddresses, and associations are still editable in the constituent window.

I'm trying to add an Inactive checkbox to a new Infomaker custom tab. I've got a checkbox, and it stores a Y or N in my custom table as expected, but now what I'd like it to do is to gray-out the inactive record and make it read-only, as inactive records in the Tessitura Association tab and elsewhere behave. How is that done?

Thanks.
