Two options:

1) You hide the field  in the edit  mode using a feature: see patrikluca.blogspot.com/.../...int-list-form.html2) You keep it visible in the edit mode, but you make it readonly: patrikluca.blogspot.com/.../...es-based-on_20.html

This is another approach mentioned in MSDN library that I came across
msdn.microsoft.com/.../...field.readonlyfield.aspx
