Restricting parts of a web form

Hi,

Sorry for spawning multiple threads but i wanted to keep all questions seperate for the benefit of future users.

I have several web forms:
case study1
case study2
profile
etc.

Each of these is pretty much just text within a body element.
The above forms will all relate to a single company and as such i want to have a seperate form (company details) which has no body text and contains simply meta-data. (i.e. To avoid repeating the same meta-data for each form above).

Is there a simple way to attach/associate this meta-data to each of the above mentioned web forms?

The details (meta-data) form needs to have 2 main sections. Both editable by our content controllers with only 1 of these sections editable by external clients (i.e. The company in question).
Is there a way of locking down specific properties within a web form whilst leaving the others editable?

If not i guess i will need to split the "details" form into 2 seperate forms and associate them both to case study1,  case study2 etc. (if this association is possible).
That way i can allow access to one form and lock the other (I am hoping).

Any feedback would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Luke

Yes, to avoid repeating type definitions across XSDs, standard common elements into a single XSD and reference in other XSDs via xsd:include.

Give this a try … let us know how it goes.

Oh - and another thing:

Below, please find a link to a hyper-cool forge project that does something very similar - standardizes definition of common metadata that is reused across forms.
