MAJOR BUG

[alta_flyer]

When a field validation fails, alert is displayed then when clicking OK program freezes

[Ocean West]

What is the nature of the validation?

Do you not see a "Revert Field" button? 

[alta_flyer]

The validation is set to allow specific values from a value list and not empty..

No, there is a script running which advises of the error after the alert appears, When you click OK,  the screen returns to the entry box but then freezes and does not allow further action. All functions are frozen.

Sorry I did not receive any response to the first post so renamed and posted again.

The problem did not happen on client's computer but did reoccur when file transferred to my laptop running Windows 7 and FMP 18.
