Org-mode: how to change <date+time> field

Org-mode: how to change <date+time> field

[Renato Pontefice]

Hi,
I’m trying to change the field value, but I cannot edit this file. If I try to erase some character (with backspace), it’s not possible:or it does not start to erase or (if I press for log time) it erase all the field.

How can I edit it?

Thank you

Renato

Could you please elaborate about what "field" you are talking about? And
which file?

I can certainly delete freely doing what you describe.
What happens if you open the file starting from emacs -Q?
