Narrative:

The dispatcher had accidentally selected improper toggle switches on computer creating a dispatch release without valid landing data on the release. The dispatcher had selected inoperative nose wheel steering and contaminated runway conditions; both of which did not exist. During the enroute phase; I attempted to acquire landing data for our arrival and received an error message on ACARS indicating that no landing data could be created due to nose wheel steering inop on with a contaminated runway. We were confused because the nose wheel steering was not inop and the runway was not contaminated. The captain contacted dispatch via ACARS and received an amended release with the improper toggles removed. We received the proper landing data and landed without incident. The captain talked to the dispatcher on the ground at the gate and the dispatcher advised filing an as soon as possible. In the future I will be diligent to back up the captain by reviewing all aspects of the release even when I am the pilot monitoring for the flight.
