  Hi
  
  ::First
  
  IF Record.FIELDACTIVE(Record.Field)=FALSE THEN
  MESSAGE('This field enabled=false')
  
  ::Second
  
  recref.OPEN(TableNo);
  FOR Counter:=1 TO recref.FIELDCOUNT DO BEGIN
  IF recref.FIELDEXIST(Counter) THEN BEGIN
  fldref:=recref.FIELD(Counter);
  IF fldref.ACTIVE THEN
  MESSAGE('This field enabled=true %1',fldref.NUMBER)
  ELSE
  MESSAGE('This field enabled=false %1',fldref.NUMBER)
  END;
  END;
  
  This code is not tested, i think it works
  
  Regards

  Enabled and editable are not the same thing.
  Enabled dictates whether or not the field is actually allowed to be used at all (in effect it dictates that this field should be ignored completely).
  
  I don't think you can tell whether or not a field is editable through C/AL code
  but you can determine whether or not a control on a form is editable by using
  [OK] := CurrForm.<Control Name>.EDITABLE([TRUE|FALSE]);
  If you leave out the parameters then it returns the current status.

  This isn't a signature, I type this at the bottom of every message

  Sorry.. in messagebox I insert wrong text, but function should work fine
  
  Description from help:
  
  FIELDACTIVE (Record)
  Use this function to check whether a field is enabled or not.
  
  ACTIVE (FieldRef)
  Use this function to check whether the field that is currently selected is enabled or not.
  
  Both function is use to check is field ENABLED (not EDITABLE)
