Hello. I've spent a couple hours browsing the forum with no success. My problem is, I have created a form with about 15 fields. I want 6 of the fields to be required to be filled out. This form will not be submitted electronically, simply printed.
1) Is there a way I can prevent the form from being printed without data being entered in the six fields and if so, how?
2) Is there a way to force the user to enter data before moving onto the next tabbed field?
3) Is there a way to open up a pop-up indicating that a field requires data?
Thank you for any assistance.
Tom
Yes there is the 'app.alert' method.
There are ways to check each keystroke, provide custom formats and validate a field through a very complex scheme. You can use the RegExp to construct restricted input by each character and use check digits, verify the parts of a telephone number and reject invalid area codes and exchange numbers. You could even look up data in a data base to verify user input.
