Subject: Need another word for "enterable"
| Hi,
|
| I need some help. A techy SME type insists that "enterable"
| is an acceptable term for use in technical documentation.
| I'd like to use something else, but can't come up with anything.
|
| Here's an example:
| All enterable fields should have a white background.
|
| Is there a better way of saying this?
| We're documenting software programming standards.
|
| Thanks!
