odd, that can occur if you have a skin that doesn't have a pane called ContentPane, so I would check that

Hi Cathal,

Thanks. It does seem to be something in the skin. I changed the edit skin to Gravity and it works now. The strange thing is the skin works when not editing a module.

Regards,

Lyndon

technically speaking every skin needs a container called ContentPane, as when you go into edit mode that's where the edit control is injected (i.e. DNN assumes a pane of that name will be there so skins must have one called that)- in theory an error should be thrown if ContentPane is missing when in view mode, but perhaps that was changed to be more forgiving
