Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5 SR2
Operating System: Win XP
Hi all,
since shortly I have a problem with running a script in Origin. I didn't find the reason yet, but I think it's related to something I have never seen before in Origin: a kind of padlock-symbol appears in the column label and it is impossible to delete data from this column. I don't know how I "locked" the column nor do I know how to unlock it - can anyone help me?
Greetings,
Thomas |

Hi Thomas,
The padlock icon means that the column has a "Set Column Values" formula with AutoUpdate enabled. To remove the lock select the column, choose Set Column Values on the context menu and uncheck the AutoUpdate box.

Hi Mike,
thanks for the quick answer. In fact the autoupdate-box was NOT marked and there was no function in the set-value window. Even when I checked the update-box, closed the window, and reopened it, it still remained unchecked.
However, your hint was useful to me anyway: I inserted a test function into the set-values-window, ran it, re-opened the menu, deleted the function, unchecked autoupdate - and now it works...
Is this a miracle or a bug? ;)
Anyway, since it works now, I'm glad - thanks a lot!
Greetings,
Thomas |
