Karen Thanks for your reply. I have a version of this form which uses the table, and not a view. The same error occurs.
The column in question is a computed column on a computed column,(both using the SRPL function to strip out certain characters - I used two columns in the interests of 'clarity'), but as far as I can see I am not trying to modify it at that stage it is just being used in the lookup. I havent changed anything (as far as I am aware) I have just tried this on some databases I was working on some months ago and the error also occurs with these now (I didnt notice it occurring when I used these previously, mind you....). The other question is, why will RBase not save the eep name, insisting on leaving the On Click action blank. It was there when I first opened these up to investigate the problem, but cannot be saved back again. It all seems a little unusual.

If the latter, is there any chance you made a change to the view that makes it not-editable? Like putting an "order by" clause on it? Karen I have a DBLookupListBox which has worked previously without problems, however I now get an unnumbered error message stating "Field de5 cannot be modified" when I click on an item in the list. de5 is the data field (column), from a view, specified in the listbox property. The other problem with this box is that it will not save the name of the 'on click' eep. I have tried deleting the box and re-creating it, however the same problems arise. Any suggestions as to what may be causing these problems would be much appreciated. (I am using 7.6.2.30102.) Thank you.
