I 've run into this on another job, but I'm wondering if there is a better workaround for this. When you set up a recipe sheet, it seems that the first column is "special " in that on the terminal itself it can't seem to edit it at all. Even blank entries cannot be edited. In fact, I noticed that blank entries of any cell cannot be edited. I worked around this by populating every recipe entry with blanks or zeroes, but I still would like to be able to edit the first column on the terminal itself. Not being able to edit that column makes the process pretty awkward and is a lack of elegance I don't really want to show my customer tomorrow.

There is no other way to do it right now. It is a feature we have requested for a future release but timing is not known.

I requested that a couple years back. It seems to be a somewhat useless column.

You can also do the recipes in the PLC. Then you can make the screens however you want. That's what I almost always do.
