So I'm not sure if I understand this one-liner to properly use it. 
 Request.args(-1) doesn't quite make sense to me...i would think you'd have 
to index into it starting at 0?

If I place the line in the model or in my function that renders the 
smartgrid form the field is disabled completely.  If you try to both create 
a new record or edit an existing record it is disabled.

Again to clarify i'd like to be able to set the field when creating a new 
record, but once it has been created you can't edit the field in the 
smartgrid (but if you create a new record you can edit again).

thanks for your help.
