Why can't I edit this dictionary entry?

Hi All,

 

A while ago our 'First Time Fix' Column label was deleted from our incident table. I have since returned it however it is now displayed as u_first_time_fix on the form and I am unable to edit it. If I try to edit the dictionary entry it defaults back every time i save the new entry. Is there a way I can change this name without losing the current data on it as we have 4 months worth of stats on that button. (clicked when Service Desk fixes fault).

 

Thanks for all the help

Hi Garry,



You can personalize label and change the label name from there.


Right click on the field->Personalize label->change the label.


Let me know if you have any questions.



Thanks,

Hi Pradeep,



Thank you for your help, however I get 'Record not found' when i try this, any suggestions? I am thinking I have set the box up wrong when I re-made it.

Hi Garry,



I am assuming you have restored the entry from "deleted application files".


Please confirm.



Thanks

Hi Pradeep,



I can't fully remember but I believe so yes. When i restored it all of the data from previous was still there.
