Field Validation

Hey everyone! When I create a new record in my solution, I am brought to the first field (Field1)on my detail layout. What I want to know is how do I enforce that a value must be entered into (Field1) before proceeding (tabbing) to the next field (Field2). Basically, I do not want (Field1) to be blank/empty before any other changes are made to the record. I have FM Butler's DoScript plug-in, but I still am unable to achieve the results I'm looking for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Jason

There are two more plugins and for both I am sure that they can handle situations like that one...

1) Event script: http://www.softs4humans.com/FMPro_Plugins.html

2) Zippscript: http://homepage.mac.com/jkornhaus/filemaker/Downloads.html
