How do I activate an error page on a form?

[Guest]

I can activate my confirmation page to my form but I cannot activate the form
for validation for failure for my form.

You really don't want to do that, as this will open a new page, and then when your use goes back to
the form, they will have to re-type everything back in, even the stuff that was correct the first
time.

In the same manner as the custom confirmation page, there is a field for
"custom error Page" in the Form Properties.

But you could use field validation instead, and it would trap the errors
before it submits the form.

Right-click each field, go to "properties" then "validate" and choose the
relevant options such as setting the "required" option or the min/max number
of characters allowed in a field whether it is numbers or letters only, or a
particular format such as a date/time or whatever.
