validating bound forms

W

Winshent

i have been given a db to add some validation to. the forms are bound
and allow additions is set to true. Is it possible to force certain
fields to be completed other than by setting 'allow zero length
string' to false on the bound table?

i notice that there is a validation rule property on combo controls..
how does this work?

Hi.

One can also set the "Required" property field property to Yes in the
table's Design View. For more control on what data may be entered by the
user (validation rules), please see the "About restricting or validating
data (MDB)" topic in Access Help.

HTH.
