Why is part of my form locked?

J

Joe Mag

I have created a form from an XML document that is relatively flat. I have
dragged and dropped the fields onto the form and made few, if any, changes to
the default text boxes InfoPath gave me. Now when I preview the form there
is a section (i.e. 12 consecutive fields) where the text boxes behave this
way: 1) In design mode when I select View -> Sample Data all fields are
populated as expected but not these 12; 2) In preview mode when I move to one
of these fields I get the standard blue border, if I type a value I see no
echo in the text box but a right-click brings up the context menu with PASTE
as the only enabled option, if I paste in a value and then do my export that
value is exported for that field, if I type a previously pasted value I get
the nice little "here are the previous values I remembered for this field"
drop down (i.e. autocomplete). What on earth is going on? I could delete
and rebind these fields but I want to make sure tomorrow it doesn't happen to
50 fields or the whole form!!! TIA.
