Required Fields for many Text boxes on a userform

[Guest]

Hi there,

I have user form containing approximately 90 textboxes, spread over 5 tabs.
75 of these fields are required for data entry.

Question:
Is there a function that i can use, and call on each text box, that checks
to see if the required fields on each tab contain data in it. if it doesn't,
i want to present a message to the user listing the fields that need to be
completed before the submission can be completed successfully, or the user
can move to the next tab.

Any ideas?

Try this: for each textbox that you want to check create a change
event function that calls another function to test if Len$
(textboxControl.Text) = 0 or not.
If you don't want the "next" or "finish" button to be enabled
(btnControl.enabled = false or true) until the user enteres data into
all the required fields you can create a function that checks the Len$
(textboxControl.Text) = 0 for all of the controls and only if all of
the. The function would be called again from the _Change() events.

Hope that helps.
