Editable doesn't mean that you can't change the field through code. Your end goal can be accomplished, but not the way you're thinking of going about it.

If you don't want to change the field in your codeunit, then don't write code to assign a new value to it.

If you do want to and want to enforce minimum and maximum values add code to that fields OnValidate trigger or create a custom function to check the allowed range.

balance(LCY) is calculated field, you never change it, you change the data in Customer Ledger Entry and this field is calulated from the data when CALCFIELDS is called.

What is the real problem you want to solve?

Is there any possibility to change the filelds in forms (like Editable and Visible).

Normally we use Currform.name.editable(false);

Is there any way to change the Field Type without using the fieldname
(Currform.name.editable(false).

If you mean to reffer the control in some dynamic way without hardcoding the control name, no - there is no way by default. You can only create some automation which will help you to set some properties of controls on the form, but there is no way directly from C/AL.
