Post by DerekAth » 09 Dec 2014 18:31

I have reported a fault through the system.

I cannot amend any notes, nor can I initiate any new notes - !!!!!

Derek where are you trying to add edit notes, the note tab or the fact tab or the record window? Do you get any errors?

Have you tried running a validate over your file?

I am attempting to add Notes in the Note tab. I haven't tried anything else - one thing at a time!

VALIDATE?

Just ran a Validate - no errors found.

When I try to enter a note (or amend one already set up) the letters that I type immediately disappear!

From the menu File>Validate

When you click on the Add button on the Note tab which option are you taking?

Jane/Mike,

For some reason I can now add/edit - I have no idea why I was having problems previously, but it looks like it has sorted itself out!

Sorry for any unnecessary worries!
