greyed lockText box for table in group?

[Mike Bonner]

wait, I mean you can still use it as if its a table field, but its strange
to use it that way.  You have to change a bunch of things to get it back to
being a regular field. (I think its possible to do that, but i've never
tried, seeing no purpose)
