They will complain that they can clear it but it gets repopulated without breaking anything?  That's not an error.

But at that point, it's a user expectation issue, not a programming issue, unfortunately.  If your users would rather lose functionality because they can non-destructively clear a field, then I guess you just give your users less functionality.

Hi Joe
This already is a work field - strictly used in the DDS screen
However, I do understand what you are saying - but I know the users involved - I will get tickets saying that there is a problem with this and that the field can be cleared

I may have to leave it the way it is and tell the users that they will have to move the cursor to that position using the mouse or the left/right/up/down keys

It would have been so much better/easier to have a method to tab over to there without being able to change the value
