Not unless you create another data entry form where you can edit the field (but you may not want this). This does not only apply to this field, but could to others as well. I've done this with an application where I fill the grid using a SQL statement. When the user wants to edit a field, they double click. A simple data entry form appears where they can change the data. The data type if trapped before the form is launched so that the appropriate field type can be displayed on the form. When the data are saved, the record is located and the field value replaced in the table.
