Answer 1

EDIT: made solution 1 solution 2 and add a new solution and made that solution 1

Solution 1

• Select the control

• The "Control Properties" tab should light up and you should see "Manage Rules"

• Click the New button on Manage Rules and select Formatting

Solution 2

You can use conditional formatting to disable any control (including drop down lists). To set your control to always be disabled do the following:

1. Right click on your control and select Conditional Formatting...
2. Click Add...
3. In the leftmost dropdown select The expression
4. type true() in the text field (this tells InfoPath to always apply this formatting)
5. Check the Disable this control checkbox.
6. Click OK and OK.

Note: You will need to do this for each of your drop down lists.

Hope this helps.
