Empty field warning

[gadgetgirlfriday]

Hi all,

I have a button that currently goes to a new record. I would like to add a script that will warn the user if one of the fields is empty. On another layout this field needs to remain empty so I don't want to require the field to have an entry.

I hope that makes sense.

Thanks in advance

By "goes to new record" do you mean create a new record or go to another record?

Script your button [pseudo code]

If [not IsEmpty(particularField) ]

Show custom dialog [particularField is not empty]

Exit script

Else

?? Goto chosen layout/record [or create new record]??

Or you could clear particularField before going to the new record/creating new record:

If [not IsEmpty(particularField) ]

Show custom dialog [particularField is not empty]

Set field [particularField; ""]

?? Goto chosen layout/record [or create new record]??

Thanks! That works great.

Cheers
