I'm sure there is a simple answer for this, but I am encountering an error when attempting to write a value to a new character field. The error I get is "ARERR [306] Value does not fall within the limits specified for the field : (MENU - $MENU$) : Equipment Type" when trying to write to the field.
On the field properties - attributes tab, I have Pattern set to $MENU$ and I have a menu that pull available values from another form created to hold the available options. The drop-down menu lists the appropriate options, but when I select one of them and try to save I get the error listed above. My understanding was that the $MENU$ option was to make sure that you selected a value from the menu, so I am confused as to what the problem might be. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
