Contact Name Field Question??

I am update/insert record into the Contact, and I got this error message:



"Unable to create/update fields: Name. Please check the security settings of this field and verify that it is read/write for your profile."



I checked my profile and standard object permissions, all checked.

The Contact Name field  is not writeable.

The Name field automatically generated concatnating the "LastName" and "FirstName"  field.

The Name field of contact is certainly writeable until and unless you make it as a AutoNumber field
