Cannot Enter Data in a Field

Hello:

I have a simple flat file db that tracks Time & Attendance for me at work.
All of the fields have default values so I wrote a short "dirty record'
script that saves the new record. Without that script, the record won't be
saved.

Everything works perfectly except for the Note field [text]. I can no longer
enter a new note or edit an old note. I checked the form and the field is
enabled so I have no clue as to why this is happening. Any thoughts?

Thanks
 
Sometimes I think about what exactly goes into a hot dog, but then I
try to forget about it.

As for your database, are you saying that at one time you could
edit/enter information and now you can't? Did you try
repairing/compacting the database? You coul dhave corrupted data in
that field in your table, which could cause it to puke.
 
Hello Manning Fan:

Yes, it's worked perfectly for almost two months, now I can't enter new data
in the Note text field, nor can I edit the old data. Everything else is
working fine. This is no big deal, but it is annoying.

By the way, which Manning?

I just realized I cannot edit any fields in a saved record. I went into Form
Properties where Allows Edits = YES and Data Entry = NO.
