Conditional greyout fields

Question

How can I grey out some fields depending on the answer to a previous quesitons. Not hide/show but greyout and not fillable anymore, like the picture from the form a the link below.

It's created by Livecycle Designer as reply in another thread mentioned. I'm wondering if it is feasbile in Acrobat Pro.

Thanks

As custom calculation script of that text field use something like this:

if(this.getField("No").value != "Off"){
event.target.fillColor = ["G",0.9];
event.target.readonly = true;
event.value = "";}
else{
event.target.fillColor = color.transparent;
event.target.readonly = false;}

Change "No" to your 'No' checkbox actual name.

Change '0.9' to '0.8' or less if you wish darker grey.
