Prevent a Particular Record from Being Edited

I have an object that users can add to and edit. I have one record in the set that I would like to freeze and not allow editing. Is there a way to do this. Form rules only take place after the record is edited and submitted. Forms do not allow you to filter a record to avoid getting to the edit form in the first place.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Another option would be to create a conditional in the editing form view that detects the non editable record ID and puts the property of the input fields in readonly = yes

document.getElementById('field_xxx').readOnly = true;

HI Mark

Assuming you're accessing your records via a table you could use display rules for the column in which the edit link resides:

Hope this helps!
