What did you enter in the List Values field?

I think it was 'pending'.

[kinook]

If another flag name (other than the first) is 'pending', entering just 'pending' in List Values won't work because it's not unique for all values. Each of the 7 list values for Flag must be distinct.

Yes & no other flag was named 'pending'. That's why I brought it up on the forum.

What was the contents of the List Values field before and after modifying?

Since I couldn't make the one change I wanted, it was & still is:

Hi Priority
Financial
Foloup
Maybe
Daydreaming
Waiting
Completed

I'm wondering if 'pending' is used in some other attribute not connected to the flag list & thats where the conflict is.

Kinook, I think I found the problem. I use GTD & in @category, I include 'pending' in my list.

[kinook]

We created multiple attributes (including one named @category) with List Values that included the value 'pending' and were still able to change one of the Flag list values to 'pending'.

In regards to:
"A sample .urd file and detailed steps to demonstrate the problem".... what's the easiest way to get my urd to you w/o my personal data?

[kinook]

Either start from a sample database w/out personal data or copy/save as your db, open the copy, delete all private data, empty recycle bin, and compact.

In the .urd file you sent, the Flag attribute's List Values does contain 'pending':

Hi Prioriity
Financial
Foloup
Maybe
Dreaming
Waiting
pending

Did you try to change this field value to something else that resulted in the error, and if so, what (copy/paste the entire field value that doesn't work)?

Maybe -> Kinook
