How can I make a field editable every time a record is opened, even in view mode?

As the title says, I would like to make a text box (preferably multi line) that is editable in view mode. I can't seem to find any properties that specifically allow for this. I know it is possible...

How are users "submitting" their Approval Entry?  Is it a Record Creation, or do you have a URL Button that marks a checkbox or kicks off a Pipeline? Something else?

Users submit their approvals through an input form that adds a record, so Record Creation yes.


In my case, the biggest reason why I've locked the record editing is because I would like for users to press a specific button that will allow editing + delete all former received approved notices for that approval request.

    Ok, I admit, I'm getting a bit confused. Can you outline the structure of your tables/relationships involved in this approval process and answer the following:
    1. Where are you wanting to put this Update button
    2. What records do you want it to Edit/Add/Delete
    3. What is your user's process (step-by-step)
    I think if we can get a clearer picture of the situation, we should be able to point you in a good direction.
