Can not enter data into field on form, help please

[seawave]

I have inherited a form from another user.
I have a field on the form that I can not enter data into the field via the form. The field is marked NOT required.
I do not get any error messages. I type the data on the
keyboard, but no text is entered in the field.
Wierd, but that is what is happening.
I can go directly to the table and input the data, but I can
not enter it via the form.
Any thoughts, suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi There.
it could be that the field is unbound and the font colour is white? - this could explain why you type and you cannot see anything and nothing is being entered into the table..
Just a thought

'Viper,
Thank you for responding.
I will check the font color.

The field is not unbound and the font color is black.
The cursor does not move in the field when I try to
key in the data value.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks.

Have you checked the form Properties to see if it allows data entry under the Data tab? It the field could be locked as well.
