Yes I tried that:

Field('medical_record_number',  label='MRN', writable=False, readable=True,
requires=IS_NOT_EMPTY()),

Still just shows none for the field on the form.

In my controller this is what I am doing:

form.vars.medical_record_number = 'KND' + str(date.today().year) + '0000' +
str(random.randrange(1, 9999999+1))

If I set both to True then it shows the value no problem.

Thanks,

Tom
