Hi,

 

Can you provide a code snippet that you use to enter data in the field?

I am just guessing that read-only control might become enabled when human user focuses it.

For example, control.Keys("Sophie") might not work, but

control.Click(); // this will, for example, replace read-only label with editable text-box

parentControl.Keys("Sophie"); // control cannot be used as it was destroyed, but its parent might exist and can be used

might appear to work.
