Hi All,
I need to add a single line of text field for the default Document Content Type across all the site collections in my server. So any document in the server must have this field as metadata property.
I need this field to be immutable meaning that data to this field can be written only once per document. i.e. during the document creation. This field should be read-only at all the edit, display forms. The value will be set during the document upload programatically.
Is there a way to do this?
Methods I have tried
1. Added a site column at site collection and tried to make it read-only. - Failed with exception that property read-only can be set only to fields that are associated with the list.
2. Since there will be thousands of libraries, customizing the edit form doesn't work I suppose.
Note: I have complete access to the server and can change any settings at any scope(includes any changes required to the XML files on server file system)
Thank you in advance :)
Thanks
Sandeep
