Why unbound form field is not editable in ACCDE/R version

I have created a small database for which most functions are accessed via
command buttons on a 'menu' form.
On that form I have two unbound date fields which have default values of
Date()-30 and Date() respectively.
When the associated command button is pressed, it runs a macro which calls
up a query to return records based on the unbound date field values on the
menu form.

In my ACCDB version, both of these unbound fields are editable.
But, when I save the database as ACCDE (or ACCDR) the fields are not
editable.

Can anyone tell me why please - or what I need to do to make them editable.
(I know I could create a table with just the date field and use it as the
source for the menu, but I should be able to just use the unbound fields
surely !

Thanks.
