All,
I've had this issue for a while, but it only happens on some machines.
Background:
Program: Labview 2012
Development computer: Windows XP
Deployment computers: Windows XP with only Labview runtime environment on it.
During development, all controls function normally. However once deployed as an executable, some computers end up with broken controls. In a numeric control, for example, the user can change it using the increment/decrement buttons, but cannot enter the actual desired number manually. In a text control the user cannot enter anything at all.
This only happens on some machines, and only with some programs. Is there some setting that I need to enable controls?
I have no code examples that can be shared, and anyway it happens with multiple VIs.
All help appreciated.

Do you have the LabVIEW 2012 runtime engine in the deployement machine? Are they silver controls and are they typedef?

The labview 2012 RTE is included in the installer I created.
The control is not a silver control.
I did find that the property for the control had it set to "disabled." So that's probably it. I don't know how it got set to disabled, though, because I didn't.
