I'm bumfuzzled.

 

I have a script with a show dialogue box utilizing the data input fields. Whether anything is entered, or if the fields are left blank, once you click the OK button, I get an error message that 'this action cannot be performed because these fields are not modifiable.' I have the set error capture script step on in the script. I've checked my security setting on these fields and they are modifiable. (They are global fields.) I've checked the fields directly on the layout, and they are modifiable. I've tried it with the admin level, still get the same message.

 

Any ideas what is going on here?

 

Thanks for any help.

 

 

 

Could it be a calculation field ?

Thank you for responding. No, it is not a calculation field, just a simple global date field.

See if you have some kind of script trigger on the object or layout

Thanks for responding. No, no script trigger.

You need to post a copy of your script. The easy way is to print to preview and copy and paste it into a Reply. Use the Code function here which is the <> icon.
