Add all the fields that you've ever used on that form back to a custom page and check the properties of each resulting control.

Bottom line: Always check the validation *before* you remove the control from the form and, for best results, don't use the simple check box validation. Provide a formula and validation message.

Thanks for your response, but I have gone through every field and removed all
validations.. There are at least 4 tabs of fields.. Is there a quicker way to
perform this search?
