    Editing tables and fields

    So I went to edit the field through the tables/fields tab under customize - I clicked on the field I want to edit, however the field does not appear to be editable in any way

     

    Thanks

    It sounds like you are trying to modify the values in the dropdown list.   If this is it, here's some info that should help.

    When you add a field as a dropdown type what you are actually doing is referencing a value in another table.  So, in order to edit the text content of a value in this list, you'll need to use a screen that is built upon the referenced table.  The good news is that if you added the vaules at the same you created the dropdown list, Method typically creates a screen for that table.  Look in your list of screens for one named the same as the dropdown field you created.
