agtjazz Posted September 26, 2007 Posted September 26, 2007 I have a conditional value list (one value list is filtered based on another value list) and was wondering how to enforce that a user ONLY choose the values in the list? For instance, I have 3 Types General Graduate Special Admit Under General, there are a handful of choices that are different from the choices that are under Graduate and so on. But a user can enter Misc instead of General and there is nothing for Misc since it’s not in the value list for types. Any way to not allow the users to enter in MISC or something they think? Thanks in advance
Ender Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 Under the field's validation options, there's an option for being a member of a specified value list.
LaRetta Posted September 27, 2007 Posted September 27, 2007 You can also force Users to only select from a value list and not type their own entries by using a popup menu instead of a dropdown list. I prefer that over field-enforced validation.
agtjazz Posted September 28, 2007 Author Posted September 28, 2007 Thank you For this db, I think I will use the field validation because the users like the autofill feature when typing. Thanks again
