ECF with Lookup - Remove Default - But Default Stays?

问题 ECF with Lookup - Remove Default - But Default Stays?

    I have a Custom Field which when created I had a "Choose a value to use a default when adding new items", but later on decided we don't actually want or need this. I unticked the box in the custom field.

    However whenever I have a new object (Project in this case), the Project Details Page I have created with this field displaying, always has the default in the box, even though I have unticked this box.

    I was going to try and find where it is kept in the DB and remove it manually but I am trying to find out if there is another method before.

    TIA

    What SP and CU are you running? I think I have seen this before, but on my environment (Dec-2011 CU) this works now.

    If it's not too much work, I'd simply delete the field and recreate it with the same name. I know it's silly, but might be a way... :)

    Thanks. Annoyingly I do have the November/December CU update on SP1!

    Well, that's weird... Have you tried whether you can remove it for a new field that you just created or any other field you might already have? Trying to isolate whether it is a general problem or is limited to that particular field.

    Hi

    after you have done the changes in the ECF, just open the PDP having the CF from server settings and save it again.
