Required property error message text

[Susy]

Is there a way to change the error message text for a
required field? I'd like to make it more simple and
direct, like "You must enter 0 if there is no data for
this column."

Thanks.

Susy,

You can use the Validation Rule property to define the data
requirements, and the Validation Text property to set up the message.
This can be done either in the properties of the field in Table
design, or the properties of the control on your data Form.
