Hi,

I am running the latest version of CB. I am trying to edit the fields that come with CB however I am having a hard time changing the "Field Type". For example I want to change the Postcode field from "text area" to "text field". However when I try to edit the field type the drop down list is greyed out and it doesn't drop down. So the only way I can change the field type is by deleting the field and then re-doing it. That's annoying and seems unnecessary.

This is the way the system was designed to work.
You can post a feature request artifact if you want.

and one other thing ... I assume that the latest CB means 1.0.1?
If this is the case, why are you posting in the RC2 area?
