SharePoint 2010 - How to create a company notification system part 4

My co-worker, Erik Boode, talked to me about my company notification system solution. He has to implement this solution for one of our customers. He actually found a solution to set fields at read-only! This is really important for the following screen:


You can see in the screenshot that I had to manually enter a warning text. The reviewer is also able to edit the text of the employee. Erik found the following solution:

Open SharePoint Designer and go to the Review Notification form of the Notification list. Click at a control and in the code field change the following:

ControlMode="Edit"

To

ControlMode="Display"

The controls now become read only! How cool, and pretty easy, is this :-) Check it out:



The only problem that still is not solved is that employees can open this reviewers edit form. Hopefully we can find a solution for this.
