Validation Rules

[Guest]

I am having trouble setting up a validation rule so that a user cannot insert
certain
words into a text box. The field is setup up as a required field. I have
tried setting up code in the 'before update' but this overrides the field
required and updates .

You could set the Validation Rule for the field to something like this:
Not In ("some", "word", "this", "neither")
