manditory fields

[Guest]

I am programming a form for outlook and I would like to add a field that
validates the number of characters in the field (the number is a specific
amount that will stay the same everytime so I want to make sure users aren't
missing a letter or number) and I want this field to be manditory. How do I
do this?

Either use a formula on the Validation tab of the field's control or use
code in the Item_Write event handler (or Item_Send if it's a message form).
