Unsearchable Fields

[Ertjie]

Im having a rather strange problem. Whenever i enter search mode on my layout, whether from a script or directly it works fine on all fields except one. When i press enter to execute the search nothing happens, i first have to click on the layout (which makes the search glasses in the fields disappear) and then hit enter. The fields are not global, calculated or containers. It is indexed. Field entry is enabled in both browse and find mode. Im using filemaker pro 11 advanced. Any advice will greatly appreciated!

What i have noticed is that once i've made my search selection from the drop down list "active cursor" jumps to the default tab and selects it. No idea why however. I've checked for scripts that might cause this but it doesnt seem to be the cause

Update: i solved the problem by deleting the problem fields and simply recreating them. No idea why though, would still like to know what caused this?!
