Looks greyed out. Most likely your screen is not attached to a row, so there is now row that can be updated. Make sure your table has accessible data and you don’t have any filters set for the screen.

Is there at least one row in the table containing data? (apart from the headers)

That will be the problem, then.  
As Jeff mentioned, the choice component needs a row that it can write to.  
Try adding a dummy value anywhere in the first row of the table, and that should fix it.
